OTHER FEATURES

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) (Mod-

el 61 only) — decodes stereo broadcasts for listening or recording. This VCR can also re- ceive and record special audio programs (SAP) that accompany some MTS broadcasts.

Front and Rear Audio/Video Input Jacks — let you quickly connect an audio/video device such as a camcorder to the VCR without dis- connecting other devices.

Trilingual On-Screen Programming — pro- vides helpful instructions on the TV screen for setting the clock, programming timers, and starting quick timer recordings. You can select English, French, or Spanish instructions.

Universal Remote Control — lets you control your VCR, plus TVs and cable boxes produced by other manufacturers.

Memory Sentinel — protects clock settings, tuner programming information, and timer memory settings in case of a power loss. The clock continues to run for 3 minutes and tuner programming information and timer memory settings are kept for 24 hours.

Automatic/Manual Clock Setting — lets you set the VCR to automatically update its clock using EDS (Extended Data Service) signals sent by some stations. You can also manually set the clock.

Note: EDS is provided by some broadcasters and includes various types of information, in- cluding the current time. If no broadcasters in your area transmit EDS signals, you must man- ually set the clock.

Automatic DST (Daylight Saving Time) Ad-

justment — lets you set the VCR to automati- cally adjust the displayed time for Daylight Saving Time.

VCR Lock — lets you set the VCR to prevent young children from operating it.

We recommend you record the VCR’s model and serial number here. This information is on the VCR’s back panel.
