Helpful Hints

•If the tape you want to play is already in the DVD/VCR, make sure the DVD/VCR power is on and the DVD/VCR is in VCR mode and VCR position. (The VCR light and the VCR/TV light will appear on the front of the DVD/VCR.) Then press the PLAY button.

•Other tape playback options and features are on pages 41-48.

•When you play a tape recorded in S-VHS format on this unit, you can not get the high resolution that would be available on an S-VHS VCR. Noise lines (black and white streaks) may appear on the picture.

•If REPEAT PLAY is set to ON, play- back will begin automatically, even when the record tab is intact.
