Note for only NTSC Playback on PAL system TV

This function is designed to allow only the playback of tapes recorded by NTSC signals on a PAL system TV. The NTSC signal is not completely converted to a PAL signal. For this reason, images play back by this function cannot be recorded correctly on other VHS.

≥You can eject tapes when the unit is in standby mode. It switches back to standby once it ejects the tape.

≥When the tape reaches its end, this unit automatically rewinds it to the beginning. During timer recording, OTR and fast-forwarding, this function does not work.

Notes:

≥Jet Search, cue, review or slow playback will be automatically released after 10 minutes, and for still playback, it will be released after 5 minutes.

≥The tape counter does not appear during Jet Rewind.

≥Depending on a cassette or the operating condition, Jet Rewind may not work or change the rewind speed somewhat.

≥During playback function other than normal playback, horizontal noise bars may appear in the picture, the colour of the picture may be unstable, or the picture may be otherwise distorted.

≥When you play back a tape recorded in the LP mode, the picture may be turned into monochrome. ≥When you play back a tape recorded in the EP mode, the picture and the sound may be unstable.

However, these are not malfunctions.
