Helpful Hints

•Pressing the S-VHS ET button has no effect on an S-VHS tape.

•To obtain the highest quality recording and to play pictures over a longer period, S-VHS recording on S-VHS tape is recommended.

•Label S-VHS ET recordings so you can easily distinguish them from regular VHS recordings.

•S-VHS ET recordings also can be played on an S-VHS VCR or a VHS VCR equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAYBACK). However, there may be cases where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a particular VCR.

•Frequent still, frame-by-frame, and slow motion playback may damage the tape and cause the picture quality to decline.

•With some tapes, better picture quality may not be obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. Test a recording first to make sure better results can be obtained.

•Use high grade tapes for best results.
