Auto Play
This feature allows the VCR to automatically start playing a
tape when inserting a tape with the safety tab removed. In
the PREFERENCES menu, press 2 to switch between ON and
OFF.

removed to start playing automatically when inserted
in the VCR.

removed to start playing automatically.
Auto TV/VCR
This feature controls whether the TV/VCR switch changes
automatically to the VCR mode, when the VCR is turned
on. Press 3 to switch between ON and OFF.
•
Select ON if you want the VCR to switch to the VCR
mode when the VCR is turned on or a cassette is
inserted.
This only applies if you connect the IN FROM
ANT. and OUT TO TV jacks of your VCR and TV and
watch your VCR on channel 3 or 4 of your TV.
•
Select OFF if you want the VCR to remain in the TV
mode. This is useful if you watch your VCR on the TV’s
video input and you don’t want your antenna/cable
signal interrupted by the VCR.
EnergySaver
By default, this VCR automatically turns off after two hours
of inactivity. To change the time delay, or to disable the
feature, Press 4 in the PREFERENCES menu to switch
between ON and OFF.
•
OFF means the VCR will remain turned on until you
shut it off.
•
1:00, 2:00, or 3:00 means the VCR turns off after one,
two, or three hours of inactivity.
Thirty seconds before shutting off, the VCR will warn you
with a screen reading, “The VCR will turn off in 30 seconds.
Press any key to cancel.”
If you use the VCR’s tuner instead of your TV to tune
channels, you may want to turn this feature off.
