FUNCTION OSD

The on-screen display of this DVD+VCR can be turned on or
off.

Use

to switch the FUNCTION OSD ON or OFF.

AUDIO MODE

The DVD+VCR has two separate audio playback systems, the
high quality VHS Hi-Fi system and standard NORMAL mono
system. The same audio is generally recorded on both 
systems. The VHS Hi-Fi system plays on separate (left and
right) channels, and the NORMAL system plays monaural
sound. The normal track is always played so the cassette can
be played on a DVD+VCR that does not have VHS Hi-Fi.

AUDIO MODE can be switched between HI-FI and 
NORMAL using

BROADCAST TYPE (STEREO/SAP/MONO)

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) carries stereo and/or
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual signals. Set this display
to the desired position when both MTS stereo and SAP signals
are received. When only one of the MTS signal is received, the
DVD+VCR automatically selects the corresponding receiving
mode (Stereo or SAP) regardless of the selected position. For 
normal operation, the display should be in the STEREO posi-
tion. The DVD+VCR will then record a STEREO program when
available, and record a mono program IF the program is NOT
IN STEREO.
For weak STEREO and/or SAP broadcasts, changing the dis-
play to mono may give clearer sound.

BROADCAST TYPE can be switched between STEREO,
SAP, and MONO using

AUDIO OUTPUT (STEREO/LEFT/RIGHT)

Used during playback [when AUDIO MODE (HI-FI/NORMAL) is
in HI-FI position] for selecting the audio output signals from the
AUDIO OUT terminals (L ch and R ch), and RF.OUT.
This display setting should normally be left in the stereo posi-
tion, so that when a stereo tape is played, the stereo sound will
be heard through the left and right channels. If a mono tape is
played and the audio output is set to stereo, the same mono
sound will be heard from both left and right channels.

AUDIO OUTPUT can be switched between STEREO, LEFT,
and RIGHT using
