Tips
• To set the channel, you can also use the V/v or number buttons.
• If the indicator appears, this means that the VCR is currently recording this programme.
• You can also do the following tasks while the VCR is recording:
– Reset the counter (page 32).
– Display tape information on the TV screen (page 35).
To use the Auto Tape Speed function
In step 4 above, press v to select “AUTO.” When you are recording a programme in
the SP mode and the remaining tape length becomes shorter than the recording time,
the recording tape speed is automatically changed to the LP mode. Note that some
noise will appear on the picture when the tape speed is changed. To operate this
function correctly, the “Tape Select” setting in the “VIDEO FUNCTION SETUP”
menu must be accurate (see page 90).
