NOTES:

 

You can activate the S-VHS ET function only before you start recording on a VHS cassette.

 

Before recording, make sure that “B.E.S.T.” is set to “ON”. ( pg. 68)

 

You cannot activate the S-VHS ET function ...

 

... while recording is in progress.

 

... while timer-recording or Instant Timer Recording ( pg. 26, 34) is in progress.

 

... while B.E.S.T. ( pg. 29) is in progress.

 

The S-VHS ET function does not work ...

 

... with S-VHS cassettes.

 

... with recordings in LP mode.

 

To keep the highest quality recording and playback pictures over a long period of time,

 

S-VHS recording on S-VHS cassettes is recommended.

 

Use of high grade tapes is recommended for S-VHS ET recordings. On some tapes, picture

 

quality will not improve even if the S-VHS ET function is used. Check the recording quality

 

before you start important recordings.

 

You can play back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET function on most of S-VHS recorders

 

and of VHS recorders equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK) function. (Notice

 

some recorders are not compatible with the S-VHS ET function.)

 

While playing back a tape recorded using the S-VHS ET function on some recorders, noise

 

may appear. (If playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use a cleaning cassette.)

 

In the high-speed search, still, slow-motion or frame-by-frame playback modes ( pg. 22),

 

noise may appear. If these modes are performed frequently on a tape recorded using the

 

S-VHS ET function, the tape may be damaged and the picture may be deteriorated.
