To Use Time Counter

For example, you recorded a 10-minute segment. Later, you want to locate the end of your recording. Insert the cassette and fast-forward the tape until the time counter reads “0:10:00”.

Memory-Stop Feature

The memory-stop feature helps you locate a certain point on the tape. When memory stop is turned on, the tape will stop automatically during rewind or fast forward when the time counter reaches “0:00:00M”.

1.Press DISPLAY on the remote to turn on memory stop. An “M” appears behind the time counter.

Note: During playback or play pause, you can also press DISPLAY on the camcorder to turn memory stop on and off.

2.Locate the place on the tape you want to return to and press RESET on the remote to set the time counter to “0:00:00M”.

4.Make sure the CAM/OFF/VCR switch is in VCR, and then press REW. The tape will rewind to the time counter reading of “0:00:00M”.
