Press 4.

“NTSC]PAL” appears on the screen for about 5 seconds.

NOTES:

Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the 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.
