TIPS
• Using this monitor’s screen-size switching or dual-screen display functions to compress or expand the screen for
commercial or public viewing in establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as
protected by Copyright Law, so please be careful.
• When “Enlarge” is set, the screen size is xed to “WIDE” mode.
• When dual-screen display is selected, the screen size cannot be changed.
• When using the screen-size switching function of this monitor, the appearance of the original video may change if
you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from
external equipment). Please consider this point when selecting the screen size.
• When an ordinary non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function
of this monitor, the edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator’s
intentions, set the screen size to “NORMAL”.
• When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the
optimal screen size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be
noise or distortion at the edges or top of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a
malfunction.
• Depending on the original image size (e.g. CinemaScope size), black bands may remain at the top and bottom of
the screen.
