Automatic Tracking
The VCR has automatic tracking which adjusts the picture when playing
back a tape recorded on another VCR. Automatic tracking is turned on
whenever a tape is inserted or the VCR’s power is turned on.
Manual Tracking
Occasionally, you may need to manually adjust tracking on a tape recorded
on a different VCR or camcorder. The
TRACKING
buttons on the remote or
CHANNEL*TWCKING
on the VCR are used when playing a tape. They have
no effect during recording.
When streaks or snow appear during normal or slow-motion playback,
press
TRACKING
up or down on remote or
CHANNEL*TRACKING
on VCR
for the best possible picture. During stop-action pause, use the
TRACKING
buttons to reduce picture jitter.
