Playing a tape
Basic Operations
To resume normal playback
Press H.
To set the colour system
If the playback picture has no colour, or streaks appear during playback, set “Colour
System” in the “USER SET” menu to conform to the system that the tape was
recorded in (see page 107). (Normally set the option to “Auto.”)
To use the time counter
Press CLEAR at the point on the tape that you want to find later. The counter in the
display window resets to “0:00:00.”
To display the counter on the TV screen, press DISPLAY during normal playback.
Tip
• Adjust the picture using the TRACKING +/– buttons if:
– Streaks appear while playing in slow motion.
– Bands appear at the top or bottom while pausing.
– The picture shakes during pause.
Notes

quality cannot be guaranteed.
• The counter resets to “0:00:00” whenever a tape is reinserted.

• When 10 hours have passed, the counter in the display window returns to “0:00:00” and the
count starts over again.
