Tape Speeds

This chart shows the recording/playback time for three types of video cassettes (T160, T120, and T60). There are three playback speeds: SP, LP, and SLP.

Helpful Hints

You cannot record one channel while watching another.

Recording options are on pages 30 - 36.

You cannot record if DEFEAT RECORDING is set to ON. (REC DEFEATED will flash on-screen.) Details are on page 36.

If you pause a recording for more than five minutes, the TV/VCR will switch to Stop mode automatically to protect the video cassette tape from damage.

You can change the tape speed with the SPEED button while a recording is in progress, but some distortion may appear on the tape.
