Jump to an index mark with INDEX
A quick way to access specific program segments is with the index search feature.
This lets you move through a tape that has several recordings on it by searching
for the INDEX "mark." This function only works with recordings that have been
set up with indexing. You create an INDEX mark every time you press the REC
button while recording.
This TV/VCR Combination's indexing system is based on the VHS Index Search
System (VISS). The new system may not recognize index marks on tapes
recorded on older VCRs.
• If tape is playing, press STOP.
• Press GO-TO/INDEX button. This bring up the Set GO-TO/INDEX Screen.

search, the words SCAN AND PLAY display on the bottom of your screen.
When the TV/VCR Combination finds an index mark, it plays 15 seconds of the
program that begins at that spot.
• If this is the program you were looking for, press PLAY to resume normal
playback.
• If this is not the program you want, don't press anything. After 15 seconds, the
TV/VCR Combination will continue searching until you press STOP or reach the
end of the tape.
When you find the program you want and press PLAY, the TV/VCR
Combination returns to PLAY mode.
TO stop the index search before an index mark is reached, press STOP.
If there are no index marks on the tape, the VCR will just rewind to the beginning
or fast forward to the end.
