Automatic Playback
When you put a tape in the VCR, the power will come on automatically. If the
tape's record tab is missing, playback will begin.
Automatic Rewind, Eject, Off
When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the VCR will
rewind the tape, enter Stop mode, eject the tape, then turn itself off.
If the time counter memory is set, the VCR will only rewind to the point at
which the counter is set to zero, then stop. The VCR will not eject the tape
automatically or shut itself off.
Memory Rewind, Power Off
When the POWER button is pressed while the VCR is rewinding a tape, the
VCR will turn itself off when it has finished rewinding. If a time counter mem-
ory is set, the VCR will rewind the tape to the point at which the time counter
is set to zero, then turn itself off. REWIND _ POWER OFF will appear on-
screen while the tape is rewinding.
Tape Eject
A tape can be ejected with the VCR power on or off (but the VCR must be
plugged in). If a Timer Recording is programmed, a tape can only be ejected
with the power on. Make sure you insert a tape for the Timer Recording.
Auto Tracking
The VCR has automatic tracking, which continually adjusts tracking to give
you the best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may
get a better picture using the manual tracking controls (see below).
Manual Tracking
To adjust the tracking manually, press the TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons on
the remote control.
NOTES:
• To return tracking to the position it was in when the VCR was shipped from
the factory, press the CHANNEL (Up) and CHANNEL (Down) buttons on
the VCR at the same time. This function is controlled only by the CHAN-
NEL (Up) and CHANNEL (Down) buttons on the VCR. The CH(annel)
Up/Down buttons on the remote control will not adjust tracking.
Tracking is returned to auto tracking when a tape is inserted, or when the
STOP button is pressed to halt playback.
The CHANNEL (Up/Down) buttons on the VCR also adjust tracking when
the VCR is in Play mode.
When the VCR is in Slow mode, auto tracking will not work. Instead, use the
TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons or the CHANNEL (Up/Down) buttons on the
VCR to reduce noise lines in slow motion playback.
Manual tracking will not operate when the VCR is in Still mode. If you want
to reduce noise lines in a still picture, place the VCR in Slow mode. Use the
TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons to remove the noise lines. Then return to
Still mode.
