ADVANCED OPERATIONS
Your video recorder is equipped with automatic tracking control.
For most tapes this will automatically adjust the tracking to suit
the particular tape you are playing. In some circumstances it may
be necessary to make manual tracking adjustments. This is
usually only associated with old or worn tapes or recordings
made on old or worn recorders. If the automatic tracking control
fails to operate correctly you will see noise bars across the picture
as shown on the left below. To correct this you can override the
automatic control and
adjust the tracking
manually by pressing
the TV PROG buttons.
