Tracking Adjustments
Auto tracking
Each time a tape is inserted, auto
tracking starts working and
continuously analyses the signal to
adjust for optimum picture quality
during playback. So, there is no need
for you to minimize noises in most
tapes during playback.
Manual tracking
• During normal playback:
If auto tracking cannot eliminate
noises well during playback, press
CHANNEL 5 or ∞.
• During a slow motion picture:
Press CHANNEL
5 or ∞ to
minimize noises in the slow motion
picture.
• During a still picture:
Press CHANNEL 5 or ∞ to reduce
jitter in the still picture.
To cancel manual tracking, stop the
tape, eject the tape, then re-insert it.

Make sure....
• The clock is set to the correct time
