1

Set the Power Switch to AUTO or PRO.. Press

SP/LP for more than 1 second. SP (Standard Play)

provides higher picture and sound quality and is

better for dubbing, while LP (Long Play) is more

economical, providing twice the recording time.

NOTES:

If the recording mode is switched during recording, the

playback picture will be blurred at the switching point.

S-VHS/S-VHS ET recording is not possible when the

recording mode is set to LP (

pg. 12, 26).
