VERTICAL HOLD CONTROL

In the Pause/Still mode only, when the picture begins to vibrate vertically, stabilize the picture by pressing the CHANNEL K or L button.

NOTE:

If there are video noise lines on the screen, see Tracking Adjustment section.

STILL PICTURE

You can view a still picture on the TV screen during playback (the Still mode). Press the PAUSE/STILL button during playback. Only tapes recorded in the SLP mode will show the least amount of lines. Press the PLAY button to return to playback.

NOTES:

You can advance the picture one frame at a time by pressing the PAUSE/STILL button during the Still mode.

If it is left in the Still mode for more than five min- utes, the TV/VCR will automatically switch to the Stop mode.

TRACKING ADJUSTMENT

Tracking adjustment will be set automatically (Digital Tracking function) when you start play- back.

However when playing pre-recorded tapes or tapes recorded on units other than your own, noise lines (black and white streaks) may appear on the play- back picture. If this occurs, you can adjust the tracking control manually by pressing the CHAN- NEL K or L button until the streaks disappear. To return to the DTR function, stop the tape once and start playback again.

You can reduce the noise lines by pressing the CHANNEL K or L button in slow mode, too. Tracking adjustment in Slow mode will not be set automatically.

NOTE:

In Still mode, press the SLOW button and press the CHANNEL K or L button until streaks disappear. To return to Still mode, press the PAUSE/STILL button again.

The desired channel is selected by pressing the num- ber buttons on the remote control or the CHANNEL Up/Down button. (If the TV/VCR is connected to a cable box or satellite box, the TV/VCR must be on CH3 or CH4, then the channel to be recorded is selected on the cable box or satellite box. )

There is a tape with its safety tab into the VCR. The desired recording speed is selected in SP(stan- dard play) or SLP(super long play) mode by press- ing the TAPE SPEED button on the VCR.
