Basic Operations
To watch another TV programme while recording
1 If the TV is connected to the VCR using an audio/video cable, set the
TV to TV input. If the TV is connected to the VCR using only the
aerial cable, skip this step.
2 Select another programme position on the TV.
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.
Safety tab
To record NTSC colour system programmes
NTSC colour signals can be recorded on this VCR from the LINE IN 1 and
LINE-2 IN* jacks.
To select the line input, press INPUT SELECT to display the connected line
in the display window.
For tape speed, select SP or EP in step 4.
EP (Extended Play) provides recording time three times as long as SP.
However, SP produces better picture and sound quality.
When playing a tape, the VCR automatically detects the tape speed.
Tips
To select a programme position, you can use the programme number buttons on
the remote commander. For two-digit numbers, press -/-- (tens digit) followed by
the programme number buttons.
If you connect additional equipment to the LINE IN 1 or LINE-2 IN* jacks, 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 will not be recorded on the tape.
If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV.
