TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
During playback, if tracking (the
alignment of the video heads on the
video cassette tape) deviates, an unclear
picture is displayed. This TV/VCR Combo
is equipped with an automatic tracking
function. There are are cases when
manual tracking adjustment is needed.
They include:
• When the auto tracking does not work
properly and the picture remains unclear.
• If the picture moves vertically during
playback
Open the cover of the TV/VCR
combo front panel.
Press the C
HANNEL

- buttons to reduce the
disturbance or vertical vibration
of the picture.
Note: Once video cassette is removed,
manual tracking will automatically be
turned off.

four index marks). A recording up to nine

NOTES:
Index marks are a
function of JVC-
made video
decks. Therefore,
I
NDEX
S
EARCH
cannot be used
on commercially
produced tapes,
or tapes recorded
on non-JVC brand
VCR’s, since these
tapes will not have
the JVC index
marks recorded
on them.
If you try to begin
an index search at
a point on the
tape between two
programs, I
NDEX
S
EARCH
may not
work correctly.
Either fast-forward,
or rewind the tape
a bit and tr y I
