Automatic Operation Features 45
The following playback features will always operate:
Automatic Playback
When you put a tape in the TV/VCR, the power will come on automatically. If the tape’s record tab is missing, playback will begin. (If a timer recording is set, you may have to press the POWER button to turn on the TV/VCR. If the TV/VCR is turned off and a timer recording is set, the TV/VCR will not accept a tape that is missing a record tab.)
Automatic Rewind, Eject, Off
When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the TV/VCR will rewind the tape, stop, turn itself off, then eject the tape. If a real time counter memory is set, the TV/VCR will only rewind the tape to the point at which the real time counter was set to zero, then stop. The TV/VCR will not turn itself off or eject the tape.
Memory Rewind, Power Off
When the POWER button is pressed while the TV/VCR is rewind- ing a tape, REW → POWER OFF will appear
If a real time counter memory is set, the TV/VCR may only rewind the tape to the point at which the real time counter was set to zero, then turn itself off.
Tape Eject
A tape can be ejected with the TV/VCR power on or off (but the TV/VCR must be plugged in). If a timer recording is programmed, a tape can not be ejected when the power is off. Turn on the TV/VCR power, then eject the tape. Be sure to insert a tape and turn off the TV/VCR power for the timer recording.
Automatic Tracking Adjustment
The TV/VCR has automatic tracking, which continually adjusts tracking to give you the best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a better picture using the man- ual tracking controls (see below).
Manual Tracking
To adjust the tracking manually during tape playback, press the
CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the TV/VCR or the TRACKING
Up/Down buttons on the remote control.
NOTES:
•To return tracking to the position it was in when the TV/VCR was shipped from the factory, press the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the TV/VCR at the same time.
•Tracking is returned to automatic tracking when a tape is inserted, or when the STOP/▼ button is pressed to halt playback.
