Tracking

 

Your VCR has automatic tracking which removes the streaks or

 

Normal display

snow from the picture. Automatic tracking is activated when you

insert a tape or turn on the VCR. Occasionally you may need to

 

manually adjust tracking, especially if the tape was recorded on

 

a different VCR. Just use the TRACKING buttons to remove the

 

streaks or snow. You can also use tracking when you pause a

 

tape to reduce jittering of the picture.

 

When you manually adjust the picture, automatic tracking is

 

turned off. To turn automatic tracking back on, press both

 

TRACKING buttons on the front of the VCR at the same time, or

 

eject the tape and re-insert it.

 

Tracking has no effect during recording--only playback.
