The size of the picture will depend on the original signal. The display will automatically become enlarged (depending on the picture source), allowing you to view the picture at its maximum size. Notes: · Panasonic Auto mode is designed to automatically adjust the aspect ratio to handle a mix of 16:9 and 4:3 program material. Certain 4:3 program material, such as stock market data screens, may occasionally cause the image size to change unexpectedly. [. . . ] This is done to reduce after-image on the screen and the shortening of the screen's service life: It is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning. The unit digitally processes the various signals in order to reproduce esthetically pleasing images. As such, it sometimes takes a few moments for the picture to appear when the power has been turned on, when the input has been switched or when the images for the main picture and sub picture on the two screens are swapped. Due to the characteristics of the system used to drive the panel, the edges may appear to flicker in the fastmoving parts of the images: This is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning. [. . . ]
