Chapter Five

VCR O P E R AT I O N

In this chapter, you will learn how to play a video cassette tape, how to use the time counter and memory stop features, and how to record a program as you are watching TV.

Inserting and Ejecting a Video Cassette Tape

To insert a video cassette tape,

1

Hold the video cassette tape window-side up with the arrow pointing away from you.

2

Gently push the tape through the compartment door until you feel the VCR pull it.

The VCR loads the tape automatically.

Don’t try to insert a tape upside

down or backwards.

Use only video tapes labeled “VHS.” European PAL VHS video tapes and S-VHS pre-recorded tapes aren’t compatible with this unit. Choose brand name, high quality tapes for best results.

If the power is off when you

insert a tape, the TV turns on auto- matically.

If the safety tab of your video tape has been removed, the tape begins to play automatically. You don’t have to press PLAY. For more information on the safety tab, see page A.3.

To eject a video cassette tape,

1

Press the STOP( ) but- ton to stop playing the tape.

2

Press the STOP/EJECT

button on the front control to eject the tape.

When you’re finished playing a

pre-recorded video tape, it’s best to rewind it to the beginning and remove it from the VCR to protect it from wear and tear.

After ejecting a tape, you should

remove it completely from the compartment and turn off the VCR.
