Operating Instructions
Automatic Tracking
The TV/VCR has automatic tracking which adjusts the picture when
playing a tape that was recorded on another VCR. Automatic tracking is
turned on whenever a tape is inserted or the TV/VCR’s power is
turned on.
Manual Tracking
Occasionally, you may need to manually adjust tracking on a tape
recorded on a different VCR or camcorder. Tracking is used when
playing a tape. It has no effect during recording.
•
When streaks or snow appear in the picture during normal playback
or slow motion, press TRACKING + or - on the remote or CH ^ or v
on the TV/VCR for the best possible picture.
•
To return to automatic tracking the tape must be removed from the
VCR and re-inserted.
Time Counter
The time counter helps locate the beginning or end of programs you
taped. The time counter automatically resets to 0:00:00 whenever a
tape is inserted, or when CLEAR is pressed while the time counter is
displayed.
For example, if a 30-minute program was recorded at the beginning of
the tape and you wanted to record another program after it, you
should:
1.
Insert the pre-recorded tape.
2.
Press INFO twice to display the time counter and fast forward the
tape until 30 minutes appears on the screen. Then you can begin
recording a second program.
This is the approximate end of the program and you can begin recording
at this spot.
3.
Press INFO again or eject the tape to remove the time counter from
the screen.
Commercial Scan
This is useful for skipping commercials or short program segments. Press
SEARCH during playback to advance the tape approximately 60 seconds.
