About NTSC Playback
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of
the TV screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or
the TV.
The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control
found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD
control.)
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and
there may be a loss of colour.
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays
may be cut off during NTSC playback.
AUTO POWER OFF
3H
OFF
When this function is set to “3H”, the recorder is turned off automatically if
no operation is done within 3 hours. “AUTO POWER OFF IN 3 MIN”
appears on the screen 3 minutes before the recorder is turned off.
