Choosing the Correct Recording Speed
Your TV/VCR is equipped with variable tape speed. You can play or record a tape at.
l
SP (Standard Play)– the fastest speed,
l
LP (Long Play), or
l
SLP (Super Long Play)– the slowest speed
When you are playing a tape, your TV/VCR automatically selects the proper speed, even
if segments of the tape have been recorded at a different speed
When you are recording, the slower the tape speed you use, the longer the tape runs and
the more program material it holds SP provides the clearest record/playback picture, but
special effects such as still picture work best in the SLP mode
Use this chart to determine which tape speed to select when you are recording

Using the Record Safety Tab
Most video cassette tapes have a safety tab that prevents accidental erasure. The safety
tab is on the end of the tape opposite from where the arrow points.
The tab must be intact to record You can record
over and over on the same tape as long as the tab
is intact. If you want to protect a tape from
accidental erasure, break off the tab with a
screwdriver, as shown here.
If you wish to erase a recorded tape or to record
on a cassette with the tab removed, cover the
hole with cellophane tape.
Sending Tapes to Another Country
Because various TV standards are used throughout the world, we recommend that you
check for compatibility before sending your tapes to a foreign country Tapes made on
machines sold in the U. S. A can be played back only on units that use the NTSC
television system.
Using Your TV/VCR in Another Country
If you plan to take your TV/VCR with you to a foreign country, be aware of the different
television systems that are in use around the world. A TV/VCR designed for one system
may not work properly with another system due to differences in the TV channel
frequencies.
