Playing a tape
Notes
• Tapes recorded in the LP mode on other VCRs can be played back on this VCR but the
picture quality cannot be guaranteed.
• The counter resets to “0:00:00” whenever a tape is reinserted.
• The counter stops counting when it comes to a portion with no recording.
• Depending on your TV, the following may occur while playing an NTSC-recorded tape:
– The picture becomes black and white.
– The picture shakes.
– No picture appears on the TV screen.
– Black streaks appear horizontally on the TV screen.
– The colour density increases or decreases.
• When 10 hours have passed, the counter in the display window returns to “0:00:00” and the
count starts over again.
• The sound is muted during playback at various speeds.
• The picture may show noise when playing at high speed in reverse.
• While playing a tape, you can display the setup menu, but the remote commander’s function
switches to DVD automatically. Press SET UP to exit the menu.
• Stop disc playback while playing back a video.
• The picture returns to normal playback from slow motion in reverse in 30 seconds.

To check the remaining time
Press DISPLAY three times. With the display on, press DISPLAY again to check the
remaining time.
In order to get an accurate remaining time indication, be sure “Tape Select” in the
“VIDEO SETUP” menu is set according to the tape type you use (see page 103).
Maximum Recording Time
To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure, break
off the safety tab as illustrated. To
record on the tape again, cover the tab
hole with adhesive tape.
Tips
• To select a programme position, you can use the number buttons on the remote commander.
For two-digit numbers, press -/-- (ten’s digit) followed by the number buttons.
• If you connect additional equipment to a LINE connector or jack, you can select the input
signal using the INPUT SELECT or PROG +/– buttons.
• The display appears on the TV screen indicating information about the tape, but the
information will not be recorded on the tape.
• If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV. When using a
satellite or digital tuner, make sure to leave it on.
Notes
• If a tape has portions recorded in both PAL and NTSC systems, the time counter reading will
not be correct. This discrepancy is due to the difference between the counting cycles of the
two video systems.
• The remaining tape length may not be indicated accurately for short tapes such as T-20 or
T-30, or tapes recorded in LP mode.
• The remaining time is intended for rough measurement only.
• About 30 seconds after the tape begins playback, the tape remaining time will be displayed.
• You cannot record a DVD to a VCR tape.
• To watch a TV programme during video recording, stop disc playback.
