OTHER FEATURES
COMMERCIAL ADVANCE Playback
Press 2 to switch between Playback: AUTO and MANUAL.
• Select AUTO to have the VCR automatically advance through
the blocks of marked commercials.
It works with most 30, 45, and 60-second commercials.
A commercial group starting with the first two minutes or
last two minutes of a recording will not automatically be
skipped.
A commercial will not be skipped if a recording starts in the
middle of a commercial segment, one isolated commercial is
shown without others, or a commercial is longer than one
minute. Press FWD on the VCR (FORWARD on remote) to scan
through the commercial.
Part of a recorded program may be skipped if the program
segment is between commercials and less than one minute or
there are frequent dark and quiet scenes. If part of the
program is skipped, rewind the tape to the beginning of the
skipped program segment and press PLAY.
• Select MANUAL and the VCR won’t advance through the
blocks of marked commercials until you press SEARCH.
If you press SEARCH during playback of material other than
commercials, the VCR advances to the end of the next “marked”
commercial block and resumes playback.
The VCR resumes playback when it reaches the end of the
marked commercials.
COMMERCIAL ADVANCE Display
Press 3 to switch between Display: BLUE or VIDEO.
• Select BLUE to display a blue background when the VCR
