38 Index Search

When you make a recording, the VCR places an index mark at the beginning of the recording. Essentially, an index mark is a type of “bookmark” for your tape. This feature is useful if you have sever- al different programs recorded on a single tape.

You may skip over programs by following the steps below. Before you begin, make sure:

●The VCR is on and is in VCR position. (The VCR/TV light will appear. If it does not, press the VCR/TV button once.)

●There is a tape in the VCR.
