Press the VCR button to select the device to be
operated.
Basic Instructions
1. Turn on the TV.
2. Tune the TV to the DVD+VCR output channel
(CH 3 or 4) or if a direct VIDEO/AUDIO
connection is made between the DVD+VCR
and the TV, set the TV’s source selector to
VIDEO.
3. Insert a pre-recorded video cassette.
The indicator lights and the DVD+VCR
powers on automatically.
4. If the (TIMER) indicator in the display win-
dow is lit press POWER 1/: once.
5. If a tape without a safety tab is inserted the
unit starts playback automatically.
If not, press PLAY (N).
6. Press STOP (x) to stop playback. If the tape
reaches the end before you press STOP (x)
the DVD+VCR automatically stops, rewinds
and ejects the tape.
Notes:
• It is not necessary to select the tape speed for play-
back because it is automatically selected by the
DVD+VCR.
Also, during playback the TV/VCR selector switches
to VCR mode automatically.
• When playing back tapes that have been over-
recorded with new content, the original audio may
be audible during auto tracking.
Auto Tracking
Automatic tracking adjusts the picture to remove
snow or streaks when:
• A tape is played for the first time.
• The tape speed (SP, LP, SLP) changes.
• Streaks or snow appear due to scratches on
the tape.
Manual Tracking
To manually adjust the tracking use the CH -/+
buttons during playback.
Notes:
• Vertical jitter requires a very fine adjustment.
• Tracking is automatically reset to normal when the
tape is ejected or the power cord is unplugged for
more than 3 seconds.
Search
This function lets you visually search for a tape
section in either direction: forward and reverse.
During the high-speed picture search modes, the
audio is muted and horizontal lines (noise bars)
appear. Also, a short time is needed to stabilize
the tape speed when re-entering the PLAY mode
so slight interference may be observed during this
time.
To search:
1. Press REW (m) or FF (M) during play-
back.
2. To return to playback, press PLAY (N).
Notes:
• After 3 minutes in SEARCH mode the DVD+VCR
returns to PLAY mode to protect the tape and video
heads.
• During the tape fast rewinding (backward or for-
ward), don’t press the same button (REW or FF)
again. Otherwise it takes more time to rewind the
tape.
Still Picture and Frame-by-Frame
Playback
1. Press PAUSE (X) during playback.
A still picture appears on the TV screen and
the audio is muted.
2. If the still picture vibrates vertically, stabilize it
by using CH -/+ on the Remote Control.
3. Press PAUSE (X) repeatedly to advance the
video picture one frame at a time.
4. To return to playback, press PLAY (N).
Note:
After 5 minutes in STILL mode the DVD+VCR stops to
protect the tape and video heads.
