SP (Standard Play) gives the best quality recording. That is why most pre-recorded, rental tapes are recorded in SP. Fewer programs can be recorded on the tape.

SLP (Super Long Play) gives three times the recording time of tapes recorded in SP. Special effects such as pause, slow motion, picture search, and frame advance work in this speed.

LP (Long Play) gives twice the recording time of tapes recorded in SP. Special effects are not recommended in this speed.

Recording Pause

This feature allows you to prevent recording short passages of unwanted material.

Press PAUSE during recording to temporarily stop and start recording.

While the tape is paused, the front panel indicator light inside the REC button will flash.

The TV/VCR will automatically switch from pause to stop after a few minutes to prevent tape wear.

Automatic Head Cleaner

The TV/VCR has an automatic head cleaner system. When a cassette is inserted, the head cleaning system is activated. This system minimizes the need for accessory cleaners or a visit to a Servicenter.
