Index Search
When you make a recording, the VCR automatically places an index code at
the beginning of the recording. Essentially, an index code is a type of “book-
mark” for your tape.This feature is useful if you have several different pro-
grams recorded on a single tape.
Fast forward or rewind to the next or previous index code on the tape by
following the steps below.
1
Press the VCR button.Make sure the VCR is in VCR position. (The VCR
light will appear on the display panel when the VCR is in VCR position.) If
the VCR light does not appear, press the VCR/TV button once.
• To stop an Index Search that is in
progress, press the STOP 9 button.
• The VCR does not place an index
code at the point where a recording is
paused, then resumed.
• INDEX may flash on the screen
briefly when you begin a recording.
• Press the STOP 9 button to cancel a
Skip Search.
• If the end of the tape is reached dur-
ing a Skip Search, the VCR will cancel
the search and rewind the tape.
• While the tape is searching for the
tape number after inserting the tape,
the Index Search will not function.
