CHECKING THE AMOUNT OF TAPE REMAINING
When you load a video tape into the VCR it can calculate approximately the amount of
video tape remaining in hours and minutes. This is useful in determining whether or not there is
sufficient tape left to make a recording.
When a video tape is playing, the amount of tape remaining is calculated for you
automatically.
To display the amount of video tape remaining:
1. Load the video tape into the VCR
2. Press DISPLAY on the remote control as many times as necessary until “R” appears on
the VCR display. The tape will wind forward and then return to its original position. The
tape remaining will be shown on the VCR display in hours and minutes.
By pressing the
TAPE SPEED button on the remote control the remaining time will
change between extended play, long play and standard play.
For example,
in standard play 1 hour 23 minutes is left on the tape:
in long play 2 hours 46 minutes is left on the tape:
in extended play 4 hours 9 minutes is left on the tape:
