1.This recorder can also receive SECAM-B colour television signals for recording and playback.

2.Recordings made of SECAM-B television signals produce monochrome pictures if played back on a video recorder of SECAM-L standard, or do not produce normal colour pictures if played back on a PAL video recorder with SECAM-B system incorporated (even if the TV set is SECAM-compatible).

3.SECAM-L prerecorded cassettes or recordings made with a SECAM-L video recorder produce monochrome pictures when played back with this recorder.

4.This recorder cannot be used for the SECAM-L standard. Use a SECAM-L recorder to record SECAM-L signals.
