Recording Features

Recording Speeds

Press SPEED on the VCR or remote to select a recording speed (SP, LP, or SLP). The speed you select appears on the TV screen.

SP (Standard Play) gives		the best	quality	recording:	That is why
most prerecorded,	rental	tapes are	recorded	in SP.	Fewer

programs can be recorded on the tape. Special effects such as pause, slow motion, picture search, and frame advance work well in this speed.

LP (Long hay) gives twice the recording time of tapes recorded in

SF’. Special effects in playback are not recommended in LP.

SLP (Super Long Play) gives three times the recording time of tapes recorded in SF’. Special effects such as pause, slow motion,

picture search, and frame advance work well in this speed.

Recording Pause

This feature allows you to prevent recording short passages of unwanted material.

Press PAUSE during recording to stop and start recording.

The VCR will automatically switch from pause to stop after a few minutes.
