Playing a Tape

Turn on VCR and TV.

Set input mode on TV to AUX IN, VIDEO or

EXTERNAL.

Load a video cassette tape. VCR power

turns on automatically.

Press PLAY to start playback. If the tape

doesn't have a safety tab, VCR will play-

back automatically. When playback starts,

the VCR automatically adjusts the tracking

for clear picture and sound.

To stop playback, press STOP.

MANUAL TRACKING

For best picture quality, the VCR video head

must be aligned with the recorded track on the

tape; this alignment is called tracking.

Recording

Turn on TV and VCR.

Insert videocassette tape.

Press the MENU button on the remote

control to access the on-screen menu. Use

the SHIFT button to select the Record

Speed function. Press the ENTER button to

select the desired recording speed. Press

MENU button to exit.

Note: Tape speed can be changed while recording; there

may be minor distortion but no interruption.

Videocassettes recorded on other VCRs and

videocassettes with copy protection may require

some manual adjustment.

To adjust manually, press CH/TRK up or down as

necessary until the best picture possible is

achieved.

NOTE: Picture distortion often occurs at the beginning

of a tape. Let the tape play for a moment to see

if the distortion clears. If manual tracking adjust-

ments do not produce a clear picture, there may

be a problem with the videotape.

Press REC; the REC button will light.

To pause recording, press STILL/SLOW. To

resume recording, press REC.

To end recording, press STOP.
