AUTO COMMERCIAL FREE COPY

When “Comm. Free Copy” is set to “Auto,” each time a TV program finishes recording and marking

commercials in Deck 1, the VCR will automatically rewind Deck 1 to the start of the recording and copy

the program to Deck 2 without the marked commercials!

How it Works

1. Load a videotape with a record safety tab into each Deck.

2. Record a TV program in Deck 1 (standard recording, One-Touch recording or timer recording).

3. When recording is stopped in Deck 1 (or when the recording time has elapsed), the VCR will auto-

matically rewind the tape in Deck 1 to the start of the recording and mark all commercial groups.

4. Next Deck 1 will rewind again and copy the program to Deck 2 leaving out the marked commercials.

When Auto Commercial Free Copy is complete, both decks will stop at the end of the recorded

program—ready to record additional programs!
