si el sistema se conecta a un televisor panorámico, seleccione este modo

En mi opinión, se refiere a esto, lo único es que el inglés deja mucho que desear. Seguramente es el típico caso de mala traducción desde el japonés u otro idioma asiático.

En caso de recibir un señal panorámico ....

The English is complete and utter nonsense! The full English text should (probably) read as follows:

When this mode is selected, the left and right-hand edges of a wide-screen picture will be lost (cut off).
When this mode is selected, black bands will be displayed above and below a wide-screen picture.
Select this mode if a wide-screen picture is being received.

The question refers to the last sentence, which translates as:

En caso de recibir un señal panorámico selecciona este modo.
