To use APC during playback
The APC function automatically works on all types of tapes, including
rental tapes. You can play a tape using the APC function even if the tape
was not recorded with it.
To use APC while recording
Whenever you insert a tape and first start recording, the VCR adjusts to the
tape using the APC function.
This adjustment is retained until the tape is ejected. There is a short delay
before the VCR actually starts recording while the VCR analyzes the tape.
