3. Press the REW button to search the scene 32 minutes before the present position or the F.FWD button

Tape indexing

The indexing system used in your VCR is based on a new VHS Standard Indexing System called "VISS"
(VHS Index Search System). It allows you to directly access specific program segments. The new system
used in your VCR will not recognize index marks on tapes made on older VCR's. Likewise, older VCR's
cannot recognize the "VISS" index marks. The INDEX "mark" is recorded automatically every time the
REC button is pressed.

Note: Normally, an index "mark" is not recorded if PAUSE is pressed and released during recording. You
must press the REC button. If you are recording two programs - one immediately following the other - you
must press STOP and then REC to insert an index "mark".

1. Press the GO-TO/INDEX button once during the stop mode.
The index menu appears on the TV screen.

3. When the VCR locates an index mark, it will stop and play approximately 15 seconds of the program
following the mark. This is long enough for you to recognize the program.
4. The VCR will continue to locate index marks in either direction and play 15 seconds of the program
following it until you press GO-TO/INDEX.
5. When you see the program you want to watch, press PLAY.
