The following tape features are available in VCR mode. Press VCR so the green VCR light is on, if necessary.

Automatic Playback

When you put a tape in the DVD/VCR, the power will come on. If the tape’s record tab is missing, playback will begin.

When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the tape will rewind to the beginning, stop, and eject.

This feature does not operate if AUTO REPEAT is ON. Details are on page 44.
