Adjusting the Picture Quality during Playback
This set has an inbuilt tape alignment system (A.TRK) that selects the optimum position for the tape automatically. If, however, noise bars (streaks) appear at the top or bottom of the picture during playback (particularly in slow motion), you can adjust the alignment of the image to obtain the best possible picture.
Picture stability can be adjusted more easily in the Pause and Slow
Motion modes.
To adjust alignment, press the TRK

button until the picture is clear and stable.
➢Even if you cannot remove all noise bars, choose the setting that gives the clearest picture.
