If the correct signal format is not selected and the picture does not appear as normal when VIDEO or S-VIDEO
signals are being input, select the format by the following procedure. This function is set to “AUTO (THE
OTHERS)” at the time of shipment from the factory, so that the Projector can normally be used with this setting left
as it is in the Latin America area.

Note:
If using a signal source with poor picture quality, such as a dubbed tape, it may not be possible to get the picture
to display properly.
NTSC and PAL-M have the same scanning frequencies and color sub-carrier frequencies, but they have different
color modulation methods. Because of this, if the incorrect setting is selected, color pictures may appear in black-
and-white.
The video system screen is not displayed with no S-VIDEO/VIDEO input signal.
