PLAYBACK
Q: What happens if the end of the tape is

frame playback, I can’t hear any audio.

search to normal playback, the picture is
disturbed. Should I be concerned about
this?

search. What’s the problem?

Q: Sometimes, during Index Search, the
VCR can’t find the programme I want to
see. Why not?

together.
RECORDING
Q: When I pause and then resume a
recording, the end of the recording before
the pause is overlapped by the beginning of
the continuation of recording. Why does
this happen?

pause and resume points.

Record-Pause mode?
A: No. The VCR shuts off automatically after
5minutes to protect the heads.
Q: What happens if the tape runs out
during recording?
A: The VCR stops recording, then, if Timer
Recording, the VCR shuts off.
TIMER RECORDING
Q: U and c remain lit on the display panel.
Is there a problem?
A: No. This is a normal condition for a timer
recording in progress.
Q: Can I programme the timer while I’m
watching a tape or a TV broadcast?
A: You won’t see the picture as it is replaced
by the on-screen menu, but the audio from
the program or tape you’re viewing can be
heard.
