— Tracking Adjustments Automatic tracking adjustment

This VCR automatically adjusts the tracking condition. Whenever you insert a tape and start playback, automatic tracking starts working and continuously analyzes the signal to enable optimum picture quality during playback.

Manual tracking adjustment

If automatic tracking cannot eliminate noises well during playback, use the manual tracking following the procedures below.

You can also use the manual tracking during slow motion playback ( pg. 29).

1 Activate manual tracking

Press CH 5 and ° on the front panel at the same time during playback.

2 Eliminate the noises on the TV screen.

Press CH 5 and ° (or CH + and – on the Remote). Press it briefly for a fine adjustment, or press and hold for coarse adjustment. Watch the screen and continue adjustment until optimum picture and sound quality are achieved.

3 Reactivate automatic tracking

Press CH 5 and ° on the front panel at the same time. The automatic tracking becomes active again.
