To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure, break off the safety
tab as illustrated. To record on the same tape
again, cover the tab hole with adhesive tape.
Tips
To select a programme position, you can use the programme number buttons on the remote
commander. For two-digit numbers, press the / (tens digit) button followed by the
programme number buttons.
If you connect additional equipment to a LINE connector or jack, you can select the input
signal using the INPUT SELECT or
PROG +/ buttons.
The DISPLAY information appears on the TV screen indicating information about the
tape, but the information wont be recorded on the tape.
If you dont want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV.
Notes
The DISPLAY information does not appear during still (pause) mode or slow-motion
playback.
The DISPLAY information will not appear while playing an NTSC-recorded tape.
If a tape has portions recorded in both PAL (MESECAM) and NTSC systems, the time
counter reading will not be correct. This discrepancy is due to the difference between the
counting cycles of the two video systems.
When you insert a non-standard commercially available tape, the remaining time may not be
correct.
The remaining time is intended for rough measurement only.
About 30 seconds after the tape begins playback, the tape remaining time will be displayed.
