Playing a tape

To use the time counter

Press CLEAR at the point on the tape that you want to find later. The counter in the

display window resets to “0:00:00.” To search for the counter “0:00:00” point

automatically, see “To search for the counter 0:00:00 point” on page 67.

To display the counter on the TV screen, press DISPLAY.

Notes

• Tapes recorded in the LP mode on other VCRs can be played back on this VCR but the

picture quality cannot be guaranteed.

• While displaying a menu on the TV screen, you cannot use H PLAY, X PAUSE,

M FF, m REW, or x STOP buttons.

• The counter resets to “0:00:00” in the display window and on the TV screen whenever a tape

is reinserted.

• The counter stops counting when it comes to a portion with no recording.

• When 10 hours have passed, the counter in the display window returns to “0:00:00” and the

count starts over again.

• When playback does not start even if you insert a tape with its safety tab removed, set “Auto

play” in the ADVANCED OPTIONS menu correctly (page 69).
