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.

LOAD A CASSETTE

1 Make sure the window side is up, the rear label side is facing you and the arrow on the front of the cassette is pointing towards the recorder. Don’t apply too much pressure when inserting.

●The recorder power comes on automatically and the counter is reset to 0:00:00.

●If the record safety tab has been removed, playback begins automatically.

FIND PROGRAMME START POINT

2 If the tape is advanced past the start point, press REW or turn the SHUTTLE ring to the left. To go forward, press FF or turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right.

START PLAYBACK

3 Press PLAY. "BEST" appears blinking in the recorder's display panel during automatic tracking (☞ pg. 28).

●Playback picture quality of LP recordings will not be as high as SP recordings.

STOP PLAYBACK

4 Press STOP on the remote or STOP/EJECT on the recorder’s front panel. Then press STOP/EJECT to remove the cassette.

Clean the video heads using a dry cleaning cassette — JVC TCL-2U — when:

●Rough, poor picture appears while a tape is played back.

●The picture is unclear or no picture appears.

●"USE CLEANING CASSETTE" appears on the screen (only with "O.S.D." set to "ON" (☞ pg. 40.)

INFORMATION

When using the AV connection (☞ pg. 6), initiating playback causes the VCR indicator to light and the TV to automatically enter AV mode. To return the TV to TV mode after playback is complete, press TV/VCR so that the VCR indicator turns off.

*Depending on the type of TV used, TV/VCR button does not always function as described above.

The tape position indicator appears on screen when, from the Stop mode, you press FF, REW or perform an Index Search. The position of “5” in relation to “0” (beginning) or “+” (end)

shows you where you are on 0 + the tape.

”O.S.D.” (☞ pg. 40) must
