Notes

•To enable smooth transition, we recommend that you do not mix pictures recorded in the Hi8/standard 8 with the Digital8 system on a tape.

•If you use fast-forward or slow-playback mode on the other (playback) VCR, the image being recorded may fluctuate. When you record from the other (playback) VCR, be sure to play back the original tape at normal speed.

If the other (playback) VCR or TV is a monaural type

Connect the yellow plug of the A/V connecting cable to the video output jack and the white plug to the audio output jack on the VCR or the TV. (Do not connect the red plug.) The sound is monaural.

	If your TV or the other (playback) VCR has an S video jack
	Connect using an S video cable (not supplied) to obtain high-quality pictures.
	With this connection, you do not need to connect the yellow (video) plug of the A/V
	connecting cable.
18	Connect an S video cable (not supplied) to the S video jacks of both your (recording)
18	VCR and the TV or the other (playback) VCR.
