Tape position/Index search
Tape position: The elapsed playback time, given to the hour
and minute, appears in the display.
When you load a cassette, the video recorder must first
calculate the playing time. Therefore, ’-:--’ appears first and
only after the tape has been running for a few seconds the
playing time will be shown.
The playback time displayed can be incorrect when using
camcorder cassettes or with cassettes made for NTSC-VHS
equipment.
Index search: At the beginning of each recording, the video
recorder marks the tape with a code mark. You can search for
these code marks on the tape. Once the video recorder finds
the code mark or a blank space, it will automatically switch to
playback.
1 To select the next or the previous code mark, press the
INDEX E button and then press the I or the H but-
ton.
Note: You cannot use the function ’Index search’ with
recordings made on another video recorder that does not
have this code mark function.

the end of the tape has been reached, it rewinds and begins
again.
