Automatic Rewind, Eject, Off

When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the VCR will rewind the tape, go into the Stop mode, eject the tape, then turn itself off. If the time counter memory is set, the VCR will only rewind to the point at which the counter is set to zero, then stop. The VCR will not eject the tape automatically or shut itself off.

Tape Eject

A tape can be ejected with the VCR power on or off (but the VCR must be plugged in). If a Timer Recording is programmed, a tape can only be ejected with the power on. Make sure you insert a tape for the Timer Recording.

Auto Tracking

The VCR has automatic tracking, which continually adjusts tracking to give you the best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a better picture using the manual tracking controls (see below).

Manual Tracking

To adjust the tracking manually, press the TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons on the remote control.

NOTES:

To return tracking to the position it was in when the VCR was shipped from the factory, press the CH. (Up) and CH. (Down) buttons on the VCR at the same time. This function is controlled only by the buttons on the VCR. The CHANNEL (Up/Down) buttons on the remote control will not adjust track-

ing.

Tracking is returned to auto tracking when a tape is inserted, or when the STOP button is pressed to halt playback.

The CH. (Up/Down) buttons on the VCR also adjust tracking when the VCR

is in Play mode.

°When the VCR is in Slow mode, auto tracking will not work. Instead, use the TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons or the CH. (Up/Down) buttons on the VCR to reduce noise lines in slow motion playback.

°Manual tracking will not operate when the VCR is in Still mode. If you want to reduce noise lines in a still picture, place the VCR in Slow mode. Use the TRACKING (Up/Down) buttons to remove the noise lines. Then return to Still mode.
