Automatic Operation Features

The following tape features are available in VCR mode. Press VCR so VCR light appears on the front of the DVD/VCR, if necessary.

Automatic Playback

When you put a tape in the DVD/VCR, the power will come on. If the tape’s record tab is missing, playback will begin. If a Timer Recording is set and “” is flashing in the display panel, the power will not come on automatically when you insert a tape with the record tab intact.

If a Timer Recording is set and “” is flashing in the display panel, the DVD/VCR will eject the tape if the record tab is missing.

Automatic Rewind, Eject

When a tape is played, fast forwarded or recorded to its end, the tape will rewind to the beginning, stop and eject itself. This feature does not operate if AUTO REPEAT is ON. Details are on page 29.

Tape Eject

A tape can be ejected with the DVD/VCR power on or off (but the DVD/VCR must be plugged in).

If a Timer Recording is set and “” is shown on the display panel, press TIMER SET on the remote control or STOP/EJECT CA on the front panel to cancel the timer standby mode, and then press STOP/EJECT CA to remove the tape. Remember to insert a tape and press TIMER SET to reset the Timer Recording.

Automatic Tracking Adjustment

The VCR adjusts tracking automatically to give you the best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a better picture using manual tracking.

Manual Tracking

To manually adjust the tracking during normal playback and Slow Motion Playback of a videotape, press TRACKING K/L. Tracking will return to Automatic Tracking when you press STOP C or insert a tape. You can also press TRACKING K/L to remove vertical jitter in a Still picture.
