Index Search 37
When you make a recording, the VCR places an index mark at the
beginning of the recording. Essentially, an index mark is a type of
“bookmark” for your tape.This feature is useful if you have several
different programs recorded on a single tape. Skip over programs
by following the steps below. Before you begin, make sure:
●The VCR is on and is in VCR position. (The VCR/TV light will
appear. If it does not, press VCR/TV once.)
● There is a tape in the VCR.

Press SEARCH MODE until INDEX SEARCH
appears.
• When an index mark is passed
during rewinding or fast forward-
ing, the number of programs
beneath INDEX SEARCH
decreases by one.
• Up to 20 index marks may be
searched.
• This function is not available dur-
ing recording.
• Press STOP to stop the search.
•
To exit Index Search, press CLEAR.
• The time gap between index
marks should be greater than 1
minute for SP recording, 2 minutes
for LP recording, and 3 minutes for
SLP recording.
• If the end of the tape is reached
during an Index Search, the VCR
will cancel the search and rewind
the tape. See page 38.

4). Playback will begin at program 5. If you want to skip to
program 1, select 02 to skip two programs (2 and 1).
