Notes:

• Use this feature when the tape is stopped or being

played back.

• This function finds the beginning of the scene

immediately before or after the current tape position,
stopping at every scene. It is not possible to skip a
scene.

• This function cannot spot recordings that are shorter

than 10 seconds in length.

• In steps 3 and 5, if the tape is at a point ahead of

the most recent recording, only the “REW” indicator
will flash, and the “FF” indicator will not appear.

• In steps 3 and 5, if the tape is at a point before the

oldest recording, only the “FF” indicator will flash,
and the “REW” indicator will not appear.

• This feature does not function if no recording has

been made since the cassette was loaded, or if the
cassette has been removed after the recordings
were made. “SEARCH” is faintly displayed in this
case.
