Notes:
• The VCR automatically stops recording and rewinds when it reaches the end of the tape.
• Press the STOP button at any time to stop recording.
• We don’t recommend changing tape speeds while a recording is in progress. Doing so may cause

distortion of the picture during playback.

• When you’re finished recording, rewind the tape to the beginning and remove it from the VCR

to protect the tape.

• When pressing the REC button on the front panel during DVD playback, the DVD will be

recorded on the VCR tape. If your DVD title has been equipped with a Copy Protect technology,

it can't be recorded on the VCR tape.

• You can play a DVD by switching into the DVD mode during channel recording.
• You can't play a DVD by switching into DVD mode during A/V recording.
• Mode Switching doesn't operate during recording in DVD mode.
