Changing the wide screen
mode
You can select a desired mode for enlarging a
4:3 picture to a 16:9 one.
%Press WIDE to select the desired set-
tin .
Press WIDE repeatedly to switch between the
following settings:
FULL (full)JUST (just)CINEMA (cinema)
ZOOM (zoom)NORMAL (normal)
#When a Pioneer navigation unit is connected
to this unit, press WIDE and hold to select the de-
sired setting. Press and hold WIDE repeatedly to

FULL (full)
A 4:3 picture is enlarged in the horizontal direc-
tion only, giving you a 4:3 TV picture (normal pic-
ture) without any omissions.
JUST (just)
The picture is enlarged slightly at the center and
the amount of enlargement increases horizontally
to the ends, enabling you to enjoy a 4:3 picture
without sensing any disparity even on a wide
screen.
CINEMA (cinema)
The picture is enlarged by the same proportion as
FULL or ZOOM in the horizontal direction and by
an intermediate proportion between FULL and
ZOOM in the vertical direction; ideal for a cine-
ma-sized picture (wide screen picture) where cap-
tions lie outside.
ZOOM (zoom)
A 4:3 picture is enlarged in the same proportion
both vertically and horizontally; ideal for a cine-
ma-sized picture (wide screen picture).
NORMAL (normal)
A 4:3 picture is displayed as it is, giving you no
sense of disparity since its proportions are the
same as that of the normal picture.
