NOTES:

●The Commercial Advance Record processes marks the tape when the picture fades to black and the audio fades to silence. Normally there is a period of black and no audio at the beginning and end of commercials.

●A black screen or a scene with no audio signal during a program may be detected as the start or end of a commercial.

●When using the timer to record two adjacent shows on the same channel, better commercial detection accuracy can be obtained by program- ming each show separately.

●If you record over a commercial start or end mark the Commercial Advance feature will not work correctly.

●Commercial Advance tested with 6 hours recordings, longer recordings may be possible depending on the number of commercials contained in the broadcast.

●The VCR will resume normal playback after skipping 15 minutes of tape if no commercial group end mark is detected.

●If the end of the tape is reached during recording, the display as illustrated in step 1 appears, then...

•in the case of timer recording or Instant Timer Recording, after step 2 takes place, the cassette will be ejected and the power will shut off.

•in the case of normal recording, after step 2 takes place, the VCR will rewind to the beginning of the tape.

●During automatic commercial skipping, if the user presses STOP or PLAY, the VCR will resume normal play; furthermore, if the tape is reversed to before the commercial group and played, the commercial group will not automatically be skipped.

●If an index code or the end of a recording is detected during Commercial Advance's forward fast-motion playback, normal playback resumes automatically.

●Commercial Advance disables commercial marking when the recording is less than 15 minutes.

●Commercial Advance does not mark the start of a commercial group when it is in the first or last two minutes of a recording.

●Commercial Advance does not mark commercial groups which are less than 59 seconds or groups which contain only one commercial.

●Some portions of programs may be detected as commercials.
