For the best picture quality when playing a cassette, the video heads must be aligned with the recorded track. This alignment
is called tracking. When playing back a tape, your VCR automatically adjusts the tracking on a video tape, but occasionally a
cassette may require some manual adjustment. Keep in mind that picture distortion often occurs at the beginning of a tape.
Automatic Tracking
1
Turn the TV on and insert a cassette into your VCR. Press
the PLAY button, if necessary.
2
After a few seconds of auto tracking, you would hear the
sound from the video tape.
Manual Tracking
Press the TRK buttons on the remote control up or down until
the picture improves.
During still mode, press the TRK buttons to reduce picture
“jitter” (bouncing up and down). A small amount of “jitter” or
some “streaks” are normal during still viewing.
Note: The noise on the screen may not be completely eliminated
depending on the tape used, especially when the tape
was recorded on another VCR.
Tape speeds
The VCR can record at two tape speeds. The slower speed (SLP) allows the VCR to record more program material on a
tape. Tapes recorded at standard speed (SP) provide a clearer picture. Set the tape speed in the VCR Function Setup
menu (See page 11). You can refer to the following table:

SLP (Super Long Play)

Record protect tab
Before recording on any video cassette, make sure the record protect safety tab is in place. To prevent accidentally recording
over a program, remove the record protect safety tab on the cassette case. To record on a tape with its tab removed, cover
the hole with adhesive tape.
