Notes on playback

Tapes recorded on this VCR cannot be played back on standard VHS VCRs. Use this VCR, an S-VHS VCR or a VCR with SQPB function to play back tapes recorded on this unit. Also be aware that not all S-VHS VCRs will be able to play back tapes recorded on this unit, because some use different S-VHS/VHS detection methods.

Try to avoid operations such as shuttle search or field advance playback as much as possible. These put a comparatively high stress load on the tape and can lead to picture degradation over time.

During shuttle search or field advance playback, noise may appear. This is normal with this unit and is not a malfunction.
