BASIC OPERATION
Rec. List SUPER
Rec. List (Recording Contents List) Super
Every time a recording is made with this VCR, the channel number, date and start time information is automatically recorded on the tape. When you call up the Rec. List super menu, the VCR scans the information on the tape and displays it on screen. You can then use the menu to easily find a desired recording and play it back at the touch of a button.
The Rec. List super feature also gives you the option of adding the type (or title) of program you record to the list. To use this option, you must select the type name using the Type input menu before setting up the recording. See next page for more detailed instructions.
