according to the colour TV system of the TV. (See page 8.)
• NTSC 3.58 recording requires [NTSC INPUT SELECT] to be
in the AUTO or 3.58 position (see page 8), however if [NTSC
INPUT SELECT] is in this position when recording a NTSC
3.58 signal, no colour is available for the PAL TV. Once the

function, use it to adjust the picture.
Note for only NTSC Playback on PAL system TV
This function is designed to allow only the playback of tapes
recorded by NTSC signals on a PAL system TV. The NTSC
signal is not completely converted to a PAL signal. For this
reason, images play back by this function cannot be recorded
