•When playing back a tape that is not recorded in Hi-Fi stereo mode, the audio will automatically be monaural.

•When listening to a VHS Hi-Fi video tape or MTS broadcast through the VHF/UHF jack (Audio/Video cord not connected), the sound will be monaural.

The Hi-Fi STEREO recording procedure is the same as for normal recordings.

NOTE:

When using a CATV system, stereo TV programs may be transmitted over a mono cable channel. In this case the word "STEREO" will not appear and the sound will be in mono.

Output selection

When viewing an MTS STEREO TV program, or playing a prerecorded VHS Hi-Fi STEREO video tape, press AUDIO SELECT to select how the audio will be heard through the speakers. Normally set to the Hi-Fi STEREO position, this button can be set to the MONO position if the stereo broadcast or videotape audio is of poor quality. The "R" and "L" positions allow the audio from the Right or Left Hi-Fi channel to be heard over both TV speakers. This button has no effect when viewing a MONO video tape or TV program. Each time when you press the button, OUT- PUT SELECTION display appears on the screen for several seconds. Refer to the chart below.
