Instant Review

Simply by pressing a single button, the recorder power comes on, rewinds, and begins playback of the last timer-recorded programme. If you have several programmes recorded, you can easily access any of them.

NOTE:

Before starting, make sure that the recorder is off and that the Timer mode is disengaged.

— Activate Instant Review

Press REVIEW. The recorder power comes on and the recorder searches for the index code indicating the start of the last timer- recorded programme. Once it's found, playback begins automatically.

●The front display panel tells you how many programmes have been recorded. If you have, for example, 3 programmes, “REVIEW” and “3” appear and blink. To watch the first of the 3 programmes, press REVIEW three times. The recorder searches and begins playback automatically. You can access a programme as far as 9 index codes away from the current tape position.

NOTE:

Instant Review is not possible while the recorder is in the Timer mode.

Soundtrack selection

Your video recorder is capable of recording three soundtracks (HI- FI L, HI-FI R and NORM) and will play back the one you select.

During Playback

Pressing AUDIO on the remote control changes the soundtrack being played back as follows:
