Tracking
“Tracking” is a term that describes how the TV/VCR “locks on” to the signal recorded on the tape. If the TV/VCR is not tracking correctly, the picture during playback will be jumpy and distorted.
Your TV/VCR is equipped with a sophisticated automatic tracking feature that can perfectly track a tape’s signal without adjustment from the user.
On some rare occasions, though, manual tracking may be required. To manually track a tape:
1.Begin playing back a tape.
2.Press and hold down the CH buttons on the remote control, one at a time. Adjust the track- ing using these buttons until the picture is no longer distorted.
Basic Recording
Your TV/VCR makes it easy to record a program you are watching. To do this :
1.Place the tape on which you want to record in the cassette compartment. Fast forward or rewind to the point where you want to begin recording.
2.Tune to the channel you want to record.
3.Press the SPEED button repeatedly to select the tape speed at which you want to record : SP or EP
4.Press the REC/OTR button once. The tape will start recording the channel you are watch- ing, and also add an index mark. The REC light on the front panel will light on red during recording.
If the tape has its erasure prevention tab removed, the tape will eject when your press REC/OTR button.
5.Press STOP/EJECT to stop recording.
