Precautions
Position of tape after commercials were marked:
After marking commercials, the VCR fast forwards the tape to the end of recording to be ready for the next recording.
If two or more programs were recorded continuously:
If there is not time for marking the tape the recording of which has finished, the commercials will be marked when all recordings are finished.
If the recording speed is changed:
Commercial Advance will operate with recordings at any speed.
If a tape marked using Commercial Advance is played back by another VCR which does not have Commercial Advance:
The tape can be played back, of course, but the commercials cannot be skipped automatically.
Markings after delayed recording is finished
After one delayed recording is finished, if it is 99 minutes or less until the next delayed recording starts, the commercials will be marked after the other delayed recording has finished. "CM SEARCH" lights in the VCR display until the next delayed recording starts. Do not perform eject, play, fast forward or rewind while "CM SEARCH" is displayed. If you do, "CM SEARCH" will turn off and marking will be cancelled (marking will not be done).
SHUTTLE CONTROL
Using the shuttle ring on the remote control
The shuttle feature lets you control all the playback functions - PLAY, PAUSE, SLOW MOTION, and SEARCH - using one convenient ring.
If the shuttle ring is operated when the key function buttons are illuminated, the illumination goes off.
