NOTES: The VCR writes an hour index mark on the tape on the hour, which it uses as a reference when searching. Because of this, a re- corded tape must pass a time clock hour mark before this function can work. The time date search func- tion begins after the first hour in- dex mark.
Example 1: The VCR is set to record from 8:30 to 17:30. Times from 9:00 to 17:30 can be found.
Example 2: The VCR is set to record in one speed from 7:00 to 14:30, then in another speed until 18:00. Times from 7:00 to 14:30 and 15:00 to 18:00 can be found.
The time and date search function only works for tapes recorded on this model VCR.
If the recording quality is poor, the VCR may fail to locate the desired part of the tape during a time date search.
