Locating beginning of timer recordings

Instant Review

After ensuring that the VCR is turned off and that the timer mode is disengaged, press REVIEW.

The VCR turns on, and rewinds to the index code indicating the beginning of the last timer-recorded program, then begins playback automatically.

You can access a program of 2 to 9 index codes away from the current position on the tape. If, for example, you have

5 programs recorded and you want to watch the third one, press REVIEW three times.

The Instant Review function will also operate if the VCR is turned on.

Skipping unwanted portions

Skip Search

Press SKIP SEARCH on the Remote once to 4 times during playback. Each press initiates a 30-second period of high speed playback (up to 2 minutes). When the specified portion of the tape is skipped, normal playback resumes automatically. To return to normal playback during Skip Search, press PLAY (4).
