Overriding Preview Skip
You can temporarily override the preview skip in two ways:
•While the VCR is rewinding to the beginning of a preview, press SEARCH/IDX and the VCR will search for the next preview.
•While the VCR is searching for the next preview and you see the start of a preview you want to watch, press SEARCH/IDX and MOVIE ADVANCE will reverse back to the start of that preview.
