There must be at least one second between an in-point and its corresponding out-point.

To ensure correct operation, leave at least 15 seconds open between scenes.

Blank portions of tape cannot be registered as in-points or out-points.

If it takes more than 5 minutes to search for an in-point, the VCR’s Record-Pause mode is cancelled and editing doesn’t take place.

Pressing R.A.EDIT clears all in- and out-points from memory.

Leave a small margin for error around each in-point to ensure the scene is recorded in its entirety.
