Your VCR will automatically create an invisible "INDEX" mark every time you press the REC button while
recording. During playback, the Index Search feature will let you move through a tape that has several recordings
on it by searching for the "INDEX" mark. See Page 35, "Jump to an Index Mark with INDEX".
• To record a Second Audio Program (SAP)
Som stations transmit a Second Audio Program - such as in a second language. If a station broadcasts in SAP,
the SA indicator will display on your TV screen.
You can set the VCR to record a second audio program by activating the SAP option.
