the tape in use.

 

NOTES:

●When using rental tapes,

or tapes recorded on other VCRs, set “VIDEO CALIBRATION” in step 4 of the Preparation proce- dure to either “ON” or “OFF” as desired to give the best picture ( pg. 34).

●The Video Calibration screen only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking. Even though the screen doesn't appear after that, the Video Calibration function is operative.

●To display the Video Calibration screen, “SUPERIM- POSE” must be set to "ON" or the Video Calibration screen will not appear ( pg. 27).

ATTENTION

As calibration takes place before recording actually starts, there is a delay of about 7 seconds after REC and PLAY on the remote, or REC on the VCR's front panel, are pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or program completely, first perform the following steps:

1)Press and hold PAUSE, and press REC to engage the RECORD PAUSE mode.

●The VCR then automatically checks the condition of the tape and, after about 7 seconds, re-enters

RECORD PAUSE.

2)Press PLAY to start recording.

If you want to bypass Video Calibration and start recording right away, set "VIDEO CALIBRATION" to "OFF" in step 4 of the Preparation procedure ( pg. 34).
