 VIDEO CALIBRATION		When this function is set to “ON”, this VCR checks the condition of the
ON		tape in use during playback and recording, and compensates to provide
		the highest-possible pictures. This takes place whenever you play back a
OFF
		tape or start recording after inserting a tape.
		NOTES:
		● During playback, this function is always working even though “VIDEO
		CALIBRATION” appears just at the beginning of automatic tracking.
		● During recording, this function works only for the first EP recording and the first
		SP recording on an inserted tape.
		For timer recording, this function checks the tape condition both for the SP
		recording and the EP recording before the first timer recording starts.
		● When you play back rental tapes or tapes recorded on other VCRs, set this
		function either “ON” or “OFF” whichever gives you the best picture.
