FEATURES
1-Mor»th Calendar Timer
The clock/timer of the VTR is programmed with the
calendar up to the end of 2002, so it knows exactly what
day of the week it is on any given date. Programming of as
many as 8 timer recordings is possible up to one month in
advance.
Auto Operation
The extremely convenient Auto Operation functions of this
VTR include Auto Start and Auto Play when a recorded
cassette is inserted, Auto Eject which indicates that an
inserted cassette is not suitable for recording, VTR-Off
Eject for ejecting a cassette even with the VTR off, and Auto
Rewind at the end of a tape. If the VTR On/Off Switch is
pressed during the rewind mode including Auto Rewind, the
VTR will eject the cassette and turn Itself off when
rewinding is completed.
Super OTR Function (One-Touch Timer Recording)
This convenient function makes it possible to easily
programme the VTR for recording of TV programmes with
immediate start or with start within 24 hours by precisely
setting the starting time and ending time to the desired
minute. When the recording ends, the VTR will automatical­
ly turn itself off.
HQ (High Quality) Picture System
Video recorders carrying the HQ symbol mark feature the
new VHS High Quality Picture System. This system
assures complete compatibility with VTRs that use the
conventional VHS system.
Lap Time Counter
The new Lap Time Counter is a great improvement over the
approximate counter systems of conventional VTRs. It
gives you an exact reading of the elapsed tape time in
hours, minutes and seconds, and makes it easy to calculate
the tape time left on a cassette.
Infra-red Remote Controller
The Infra-red Remote Controller unit allows operation of
various functions from the comfort of your favourite viewing
position.
LCD Digital Scanner
This Digital Scanner makes it posible to programme timer
recordings by tracing the corresponding bar codes on the
supplied Programming Sheet. The traced programming
data can be confirmed on the built-in Bar Code Reader
Display before they are transmitted to the VTR at the push
of a button.
Time Search
It is possible to locate the desired scene directly by inputting
the hour, minute and second of that scene.
Super Still, Super Still Advance and Double Super
Fine Slow Playback
Super Still, Super Still Advance and Double Super Fine
Slow Playback are possible with superb picture quality free
from noise and jitter.
Slim Design and Front Loading System
This highly functional design allows loading the video
cassette from the front, thus minimizing the space required
for the placement.
Multi-Function Display
Whenever an operation button is pressed, the activated
function is immediately indicated on this easy-to-see
display. It shows you at a glance, in what operation mode
the VTR is functioning.
Picture Sharpness Control

be made sharper or softer.
Digital Special Effect

the Remote Controller.
VHS Index Search System
With the Index Search function, up to 20 addresses (places
where an Index signal is recorded) can be skipped to
directly locate the beginning of the desired programme in
forward or reverse direction in the Fast Fonward or Rewind
mode.
Digital Intro Scan Function
The Intro Scan function plays back one after another the
first 10 seconds of each programme on a tape and keeps a
still picture of the last 3 programmes on the right side of the
screen. This is convenient for easy checking what pro­
grammes are on a tape and to quickly find a desired
programme.
Reception of up to 32 TV Stations
The built-in tuner in this VTR allows pre-tuning of as many
as 32 TV stations. So this VTR can accommodate virtually
any increase in available TV programmes in the future.
