NOTES:

The TV/ VCR combo can record and play back video cassettes in monaural sound only.

This TV/VCR combo is equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) which lets you watch tapes record- ed in the S-VHS format.

SQPB does not deliver S-VHS resolution.

S-VHS recording is not possible with this video recorder.

You can watch a different program than the one being recorded by the VCR. Press the CHANNEL +/- button or use the 10-key pad to switch to a different channel. You may also return to the recording channel at any time.

VCR BASICS

This section of the guide will explain the many functions of the VCR portion of your new TV/VCR Combo. We will begin with a basic explana- tion of how to load, view and eject a video cassette.

LOAD A VIDEOCASSETTE

Make sure the “window” of the video cassette is facing up, and the rear label of the video cassette is facing you. Insert the cassette into the slot below the television screen by pressing on the rear of the cassette. Do not use too much pressure when inserting. If the tab at the rear of the cassette has been removed, playback of the tape will begin automatically:

CAUTION!

To avoid injury, do not place your hand inside the video cassette slot of the VCR or your hand may be caught by the unit’s internal mechanism. Take special care to prevent children from inserting their hands into the VCR.

STOP PLAYBACK

To end playback of the video cassette, press the STOP button on the remote or the STOP/EJECT button on the TV/VCR combo front panel. The video playback will stop and the on screen display will automatically switch to the television (or to LINE if LINE INPUT is selected).

SIMPLE RECORDING

To record a television program, first select the channel airing the program you wish to record using the 10-digit key pad or CHANNEL +/- buttons on the remote control. Next, press the SP/EP button to select the recording speed (for more on recording speeds see page 20). To begin recording, press the PLAY button while holding down the REC button.The following display will appear on screen over the television picture for a few seconds.

The Tape Counter appears on screen when you fast forward or rewind as a guide to show how much tape is left on a cassette. It also appears when you begin recording or playback.
