Helpful Hints

You cannot record one channel while watching another.

Recording options are on pages 31-41.

You cannot record if DEFEAT RECORDING is set to ON. (REC DEFEATED will flash on the screen.) Details are on page 33.

If you pause a recording for more than five minutes, the TV/VCR will switch to Stop mode automatically to protect the video cassette tape from damage.

You can change the tape speed with the SPEED button while a recording is in progress, but some

distortion may appear on the tape.
