PICTURE SEARCH

This feature is very useful in finding or skipping over
a particular scene on a tape. In this mode, the sound
will be muted.
1)You may view a video tape at a high speed in

either a forward or reverse direction by pressing
the F.FWD or REW button during playback. (in the
SP / LP / SLP modes)

2)Press it again and the TV/VCR will now search in

super high speed. (in the LP / SLP modes only)
NOTE: Tapes recorded in the SP or LP mode will
display a noise bar on the TV screen and the pic-
ture may revert to Black and White. This is normal.

3)Press the PLAY button to return to normal speed.

STILL PICTURE

You can view a still picture on the TV screen during
playback (the Still mode). Press the PAUSE/STILL
button during playback. Only tapes recorded in the
SLP mode will show the least amount of lines. Press
the PLAY button to return to playback.
NOTES:

Usually there will be video “noise” lines (black
and white streaks or dots) on the screen. This is
normal.
If the tape was originally recorded in SP or LP
mode, the still picture will be black and white in
addition to the “noise” lines.
This is not a fault of the machine, but is a by-
product of the technology involved in producing
a TV/VCR with 2 video heads.

If it is left in the Still mode for more than five min-
utes, the TV/VCR will automatically switch to the
Stop mode.
