About NTSC Playback

●Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the unit or the TV.

●The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)

●The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.

●During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.

●Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.

8AUTO POWER OFF — 3H / OFF

When this function is set to “3H”, the unit is turned off automatically if no operation is done within 3 hours. “AUTO POWER OFF IN 3 MIN” appears on the screen 3 minutes before the unit is turned off.
