Helpful Hints

If you press the REC(ord)/OTR but- ton when there is not a tape in the VCR, NO CASSETTE will flash on- screen.

If you press the REC(ord)/OTR but- ton while a tape without a record tab is in the VCR, the VCR will eject the tape and PROTECTED CAS- SETTE CANNOT RECORD will flash on-screen.

Other recording options are on pages 26 - 36.

You can change the tape speed during a recording, but some distor- tion will appear on the tape.

The VCR will record in a preset vol- ume.
