Tip
• The VCR can search up to six hours ahead of or behind the current position of a
tape.
You can easily find a specific point on a tape
by using the Time Search function.
For example, you can find a recorded portion

position of a tape by using the Time Search
function.

(the SEARCH MODE button lights up).

Turn DIAL TIMER clockwise or counterclockwise to set the length of the time
portion you want the VCR to fast-forward or rewind the tape. Each turn on the
control increases or decreases the duration by 15 minutes.
For example, if you want to watch a recorded portion 15 minutes ahead of the
current position, turn DIAL TIMER once clockwise.
To change the time by one minute,
press C/–.

Press DIAL TIMER.
The VCR starts searching and the tape counter starts counting until it reaches the

The VCR starts playback automatically when the tape counter reaches the

– Tapes recorded in more than one tape speed mode.
• If you move the pointer (

new reset point.
• With the bar indication on, the M FF/ , and m REW/ < buttons on the remote
commander work only for moving the pointer (

The M FF and m REW buttons on the VCR are used for normal tape operation. Note,
however, if you press these buttons on the VCR, searching is canceled.
