SHUTTLE
CONTROL
Using the shuttle ring on the remote control
The shuttle feature lets you control all the playback functions - PLAY, PAUSE, SLOW
MOTION, and SEARCH - using one convenient ring.
If the shuttle ring is operated when the key function buttons are illuminated, the illumination
goes off.
How to use the shuttle ring
[A] Turn the shuttle ring during playback or still playback (pause).
• As you turn the ring, you get different playback speeds and forward or reverse motion.
• Try using the shuttle to explore backward and forward through your next video.
[B] Turn the ring in the stop mode to fast forward or rewind the tape.
• The tape continues to be wound even after you release the dial.
Notes:
• If noise bars appear on the TV screen during the
SLOW/STILL
modes, turn and hold the
shuttle ring in the
SLOW
position, then press the CH (
or
) button on the remote control to
minimize the noise bars. The noise bars are then eliminated automatically in the
STILL
mode.
• Since thin videotape is used in T-180 and longer cassettes, do not repeatedly perform the
following operations with these tapes.
— Fast forward, rewind, slow play
— Insertion and ejection of tapes
