takes place for both SP and EP before the first timer recording after inserting the cassette (regardless of the tape speed selected for that recording).

●Once the cassette is ejected, the calibration data is canceled. The next time the cassette is used for recording, calibration is re-performed.

●While Video Calibration is operative, the PAUSE button will not function.

●To display the Video Calibration screen, "SUPERIM- POSE" must be set to "ON" or the Video Calibration screen will not appear (☞ pg. 25).

ATTENTION

■As calibration takes place before recording actually starts, there is a delay of about 7 seconds after REC and PLAY on the remote, or REC on the VCR's front panel, are pressed. To make sure you record the desired scene or program completely, first perform the following steps:

1)Press and hold PAUSE, and press REC to engage the RECORD PAUSE mode.

●The VCR then automatically checks the condition of the tape and, after about 7 seconds, re-enters

RECORD PAUSE.

2)Press PLAY to start recording.

■If you want to bypass Video Calibration and start recording right away, set "VIDEO CALIBRATION" to "OFF" in step 4 of the Preparation procedure (☞ pg. 34).
