VCR BASICS
RECORDING
If you want to record something that you're watching, you can
use basic recording. For more detailed information, refer to the
"Recording" section starting on the next page.
1. Set the tape speed by pressing TAPE SPEED on the VCR
(SPEED on the remote).
2. Press the RECORD button to begin recording.
3. Press STOP to stop recording.
If you just want to pause the recording for a short time
(such as during a commercial), press PAUSE instead of STOP.
• For more information about in-depth recording features,
refer to the next section.
CHECK THE SAFETY TAB
No matter which recording option you use, you need to make
sure there is a tape in the VCR, and that the tape's safety tab is in
place. You cannot record on a tape with the safety tab removed.
If the safety tab is removed and you want to record over it,
simply cover the hole with vinyl tape.

Tape Speeds

fewer programs can be recorded on
the tape. Special effects such as
pause, slow motion, picture search,
and frame advance work well when
you play back tapes recorded in
this speed.
SLP (Super Long Play)
Gives three times the recording time
of tapes recorded in SP. Special effects
such as pause, slow motion, picture
search, and frame advance work well
when you play back tapes recorded in
this speed.
