Index Search
The VCR has a VHS Index Search System that automatically records an index mark
every time you start a recording. During playback you can locate the program
you want to play by the number of index marks or by scanning. The VCR will
search forward or reverse from the location you are at on the tape.
To Search:
1. Press STOP.
2. Press SEARCH on the remote to display the INDEX SEARCH menu on the
TV screen.
3. If you want to search through a certain number of index marks, press two
number buttons to enter the number of marks you want to search. Press
CLEAR on the remote to correct an entry.
4. Press FORWARD (FWD) to search forward or REVERSE (REV) to search in
reverse. The VCR will locate your index mark and begin playback. If you
did not enter a specific index number, the VCR will locate the next index
mark and begin playback.
5. Press STOP to halt Index Search.
Notes: Certain index marks may be missed by the VCR including:
• Marks too close to the current location of the tape.
• Marks at the beginning of a recorded segment lasting less than five minutes.
• Index marks that start at the beginning of the tape.
