VCR Playback
Still Picture and Frame Advance
1. Press the PAUSE II button during playback. This will freeze the picture on your TV.
2. If the picture vibrates vertically during still mode, use the CH +/- buttons to adjust for minimum distortion. If noise
bars appear on the screen during still mode, set your VCR to the slow mode and press the CH +/- buttons to make
the noise disappear. Then press the PAUSE II button again.
3. Press the PAUSE II button during still mode for frame advance.
4. Press the PLAY
button again to resume normal playback.
Note:
• Sound is muted during still picture, video search, frame advance and variable slow motion.
Automatic Tracking Control System
This function automatically adjusts the tracking to match the recorded tape. Auto tracking engages in the following
cases:
• When you insert the cassette and begin playback.
• When you press the CH +/- buttons at the same time.
• When the VCR has been playing back an unrecorded section of tape, and then reaches a recorded tape segment.
When auto tracking engages, “PLAY” on the TV screen flashes for a few seconds.
Slow Motion Playback
1. Press the SLOW button during playback.
2. Press the SLOW button to vary the slow motion playback speed between 1/5 and 1/30 of the normal playback
speed.
If noise bars appear on the screen, use the CH +/- buttons.
If the picture experiences vertical jitter during the slow mode, set your VCR to the STILL mode and press the CH
+/- buttons to stabilize the picture. Then press the SLOW
button again.
3. Press the PLAY
button to resume normal playback.
Manual Tracking Control
When a poorly recorded tape is playback or the VCR is near an electrical or magnetic field, auto tracking may not
operate normally. In this event, manually adjust the tracking with the CH +/- buttons to make any noise disappear.
Poor Tracking Normal Picture
Blue Screen Noise Elimination
Set the BLUE SCREEN mode to ON on the SETUP button selection screen. (See Mode Selection.) This function
eliminates monitor noise and mutes sound during playback of unrecorded portions of a tape and when receiving a
non-broadcasting channel. Blue Screen will also appear if the VCR is set to the Auxiliary mode but no video signal
is fed to the VCR. (The BLUE SCREEN mode is set to ON at the factory.)
Notes:
• Blue Screen does not function during still picture, variable slow motion and video search.
• Blue Screen may not function properly if the broadcast signal is too strong or too weak.
• Blue Screen does not function during playback of a tape with noise recorded.
• If the antenna signal is weak while recording a TV programme or if the input signal is weak while tape dubbing,
the monitor screen may turn blue since the unit may not recognize whether or not a proper signal is being
received. In this event, set the BLUE SCREEN mode to OFF.
