batteries with new ones.
 Do not use any batteries other than those
specified. Do not mix new batteries with old
ones.
 Do not heat or disassemble batteries. Never
throw them in fire or water.

General Setup Page
TV Display
The shape of the television or monitor may not match the shape of the movie frame. To avoid distortion on older televisions, you may need to change the way in which the image is displayed. Televisions use a 4:3 aspect ratio; high-definition televisions use 16:9 aspect ratio (as do movies).
Note:
You may need to read your television’s manual
in conjunction with this section in order to achieve the best results. Some discs do not allow the aspect ratio to be changed and you will therefore have to change the aspect ratio on the TV.
Make this setting while playback is stopped; you cannot do this while playing a disc.
NORMAL/PS
This mode is used with 4:3 televisions.
4:3 images are displayed normally. When showing 16:9 programmes, the full height of the
screen is displayed, and the left and right part of
the image are cut off.
NORMAL/LB
This mode is used with 4:3 televisions.
4:3 images are displayed normally. 16:9 images
are visible at their full width, but there are blank
areas at the top and bottom of the screen.
WIDE
Use with a 16:9 wide television.
