over a long period of time, S-VHS recording on S-VHS cassettes
is recommended.

recordings. On some tapes, picture quality will not improve
even if the S-VHS ET function is used. Check the recording
quality before you start important recordings.
Ⅵ B.E.S.T. — ON/OFF
When B.E.S.T. (Biconditional Equalized Signal Tracking) system is
set to “ON”, this VCR checks the condition of the tape in use
during playback and recording, and compensates to provide the
highest-possible pictures. This takes place whenever you play
back a tape or start recording after inserting a tape.

The VCR checks the tape condition for about 7 seconds, then
starts recording. To make sure you record the desired scene or
program completely, perform the following steps:
A Press and hold PAUSE (9), and press REC (7). After about
7 seconds, the VCR re-enters Record Pause mode.
B Press PLAY (

Ⅵ PICTURE CONTROL — AUTO(NORM)/EDIT/SOFT/SHARP
This function helps you to adjust the playback picture quality
according to your preference.
AUTO (NORM): Normally select this. Picture quality is adjusted
automatically. When “B.E.S.T.” is “OFF”, “NORM” will appear
instead of “AUTO”.
EDIT: Minimizes picture degradation during editing (recording and
playback).
SOFT: Reduces image coarseness when viewing overplayed tapes
containing much noise.
SHARP: Clearer, sharper-edged picture when viewing images with
much flat, same-colored surfaces such as cartoons.
NOTE:
Select “EDIT” when you are editing tapes. After you finish editing
the tapes, select “AUTO”.

sure to set this function to “OFF”; otherwise, the VCR status
information (on-screen display) will be recorded on the edited
tape.
Ⅵ AUTO SP]EP TIMER — ON/OFF

switches to EP mode to allow complete recording if there is not
enough tape to record the entire program while timer-recording in
SP mode.

a 120-minute tape
NOTES:

programs, do not use this function, but change the tape speed
manually during timer programing.

speed switches from SP to EP mode on the tape.
