42 Index Search
3
When you make a recording, the VCR automatically places an
index code at the beginning of the recording. Essentially, an index
code is a type of “bookmark” for your tape. This feature is useful
if you have several different programs recorded on a single tape.
Fast forward or rewind to the next or previous index code on the
tape by following the steps below.
1
Press the VCR button.
2
Make sure the VCR is in VCR position. (The VCR light will appear
on the display panel when the VCR is in VCR position.) If the
VCR light does not appear, press the VCR/TV button
once.
5
Press the INDEX
¢
button to fast forward to the next
index code on the tape. Or, press the INDEX
4
button
to rewind to the previous index code on the tape. Wait for
the VCR to fast forward or rewind the tape. When the index
code is reached, tape playback will begin automatically.
NOTE: You may press an INDEX button repeatedly to skip over
multiple recordings. For example, if you want to fast forward past
four recordings, press the INDEX
¢
button four times. INDEX
4 will appear in the bottom right corner of the screen. The index
codes will count down on-screen as the search progresses. (ON
SCREEN MODE cannot be set to OFF.)
3
Insert a tape in the VCR.
4
Press the STOP
9
button to stop tape playback, if neces-
sary.
Insert a tape.
• The VCR does not place an index
code at the point where a recording
is paused, then resumed.
• INDEX may flash on-screen briefly
when you begin a recording.
