INFORMATION:
In the case of a tape that has accidentally been assigned multiple Tape Numbers, perform the following consolidation procedure:
1.Insert the tape, and the VCR reads the Tape Number at the current tape position. (Refer to page 13 of this instruction manual.)
2.Find a location on the tape where another Tape Number is recognized, play the tape back for a few seconds and press INDEX Plus+.
3.The directory appears, and program titles that appeared separately under different Tape Numbers are combined into one listing, under the older number.
4.If the tape has more than two Tape Numbers, repeat steps 2 and 3 for each additional number.
ATTENTION:
When this VCR's memory becomes full, you cannot register any more directories. Be sure to occasionally check the status of memory. When it becomes full, cancel unnecessary directories. (Refer to "Erasing A Directory" on page 21 of this instruction manual.)
Use the following procedure to check the status of memory.
1. Turn on the power to the TV and the VCR.
2. Set the TV to the channel or mode appropriate for video playback.
3. Insert an HR tape.
4. Press INDEX Plus+. The tape's directory appears.
5. Press F3.
6. The screen to the right appears. At the bottom of the screen, the amount of memory currently being used is shown. It begins blinking when there's no memory space open.
