First Recording and Playback
This
page
gives
the
basic
steps
for
recording
and
playback.

should
practice
them

do
them
without

manual.
To
save
time,
we
suggest you record for only two or three minutes.

make
a

and

the VCR. The operating notes at the bottom of the page
are keyed to the step numbers for quick reference if you
have a problem or need more information.
