When the STILL button is pressed during playback,
a still picture can be seen. To start again press
STILL or PLAY button and the VCR will continue

back, press the V.LOCK buttons.
V.LOCK ADJUST
If the picture shakes up and down during still play-
back, adjust the picture by the following procedure.
1. Play back a tape, recorded in the 08 mode, in the
still playback mode.
• With some TVs, if the V.LOCK buttons are
pressed when playing a tape recorded in
modes other than 08, shaking of the still pic-
ture may not stop.
2. Press the V.LOCK buttons so the shaking of the
picture stops.
Note: Shaking of the picture may not be stopped
completely depending on the TV used.

MODES
When you press the FIELD ADVANCE or FIELD
REVERSE button during still playback mode, one
field at a time can be seen.

the unit to the STOP mode if the STILL or PLAY

still playback mode to set the VCR to the field
reverse mode, the first several frame images may

corded material to be reviewed at 3, 5, 7 or 9 times
the 08 hour speed mode.

ALARM INDEX SEARCH
The alarm index search method causes electronic
“marks” to be recorded on the tape at each point
when the ALARM recording begins.
Later, the VCR can find these “marks” automatically,
making it easy to find the beginning of each alarm
for playback.
These check points are permanent until the tape is
erased. A check mark is recorded automatically
each time the VCR starts ALARM recording.
1. Press the PLAY button to start playback.
2. Press the ALARM INDEX button.
3. Press the REW or F.FWD button. The recorder
enters VISUAL SEARCH mode.
4. When the VCR finds a mark, it enters normal
playback mode.
5. Press REW or F.FWD button again to find next
“marked” recording. The recorder advances
tape to the next marked position.
6. Press the ALARM INDEX button again to release
alarm index search.
Notes:
1. Be careful as no alarm input can be detected for
5 seconds immediately after the visual search
mode is entered by pressing the REW or F.FWD
button during the alarm index search mode.
2. When tapes recorded by other VCRs are played
in the alarm index search mode, the VCR may
enter the play mode in a meaningless position.
3. When you have selected “MANUAL” at the
DURATION setting in the ALARM display and the
duration of an alarm recording is shorter than the
values shown below, “marks” may not be detec-
ted.
