12BASICOPERATIONS

Playback

Turn on the TV and select the AV mode.

The easiest, most basic operation possible with your video recorder is tape playback. Already-recorded signals on a video tape are read by your video recorder and displayed on your TV just like a TV programme.

This recorder can play back tapes that have been recorded in D-VHS (MTP), S-VHS and VHS formats.

When playing back a tape, this recorder automatically identifies the recording format (D-VHS, S-VHS, or VHS).

shows you where you are on 0 + the tape.
