If noise appears on the screen during playback, press either CH/TRK v/V on the remote control or CH/PRE- SET (v/V) on the front panel until the noise on the screen is reduced.

If vertical jitter is present, adjust tracking controls very carefully.

Tracking is automatically reset to normal when the tape is ejected or the power cord is unplugged for more than 3 seconds.

Special Effect Playbacks

Special effects playback notes

Horizontal lines (noise bars) will appear on the TV screen. This is normal.

The audio is automatically muted during special effect modes, so there is no sound during search.
