record mode from the spot on the source tape you want to begin recording.

NOTES:

It is recommended to use the AC Adapter as the power supply instead of the battery pack ( pg. 9).

If the remote control is used when both the player and recorder are JVC video units, both units will perform the same operation. To prevent this from happening, press the buttons on both units.

If a blank portion or disturbed image is played back on the player during dubbing, the dubbing may stop so that an unusual image is not dubbed.

Even though the DV cable is connected correctly, sometimes the image may not appear in step 4. If this occurs, turn off the power and make connections again.

If “Playback Zoom” ( pg. 42) or “Snapshot” is attempted during playback, only the original playback image recorded on the tape is output from the DV connector.

When using a DV cable, be sure to use the optional JVC VC-VDV204U DV cable.
