Automatic Operation Features 57

Automatic Playback

When you put a tape in the VCR, the power will come on auto- matically. If the tape’s record tab is missing, playback will begin.

Automatic Rewind

When a tape is played, fast forwarded, or recorded to its end, the VCR will rewind the tape to the beginning, then stop.

If the Memory light appears on the display panel, the tape may stop at 0H00M00S on the tape counter.

Memory Rewind, Power Off

When the POWER button is pressed while the VCR is rewinding a tape, REWIND→POWER OFF will appear on-screen. When the tape has finished rewinding, the VCR will stop, then turn itself off. Or, if the Memory light appears on the display panel, the tape may stop at 0H00M00S on the tape counter. The VCR will turn itself off.

Tape Eject

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

If a timer recording is programmed, the TIMER and Cassette- Inside lights will flash on the VCR’s display panel when you eject a tape with the VCR power turned off.

Automatic Tracking Adjustment

The VCR continually adjusts tracking to give you the best possible picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a better picture by adjusting the tracking manually (see below).

Manual Tracking Adjustment

•Press the TRACKING Up/Down buttons to adjust tracking manually during normal and slow motion playback.

•Press the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR to remove jitter in a still picture. The CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the remote control will not remove jitter in a still picture.

•You can return to Automatic Tracking Adjustment by pressing the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR at the same time.

•The CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR also adjust tracking during normal tape playback.

•The VCR returns to Automatic Tracking Adjustment whenever a tape is inserted.
