2Press the l (or j) button to set the desired day, then press the * button.

3Press the l (or j) button to set the desired hour, then press the * button.

4Press the l (or j) button to set the desired minutes.

NOTES:

The setting can be made in 10 minutes increments only.

For recordings made on other VCRs, the exact time may not be found even if the minutes are entered. For tapes recorded on older models of VCRs produced by this company (the ones without a minutes setting for the day/time search function), make sure to set the minutes to “00”.

5Press the FF (or REW) button.

°The desired day/time is searched and a still image of the recording will appear on-screen.

6Press the PLAY button.

°Playback will start.

NOTES:

If during a search the end of the tape is reached, the tape will rewind and stop. If the beginning of the tape is reached, it will stop.

The alarm and day/time data are recorded on the tape in a similar format. If they overlap, the alarm data will have the priority. Therefore, when searching for a day/time when an alarm recording was done, the day/time search will not stop at the desired location. In such a case, use alarm scan to find the desired recording location.

The day/time search function may not operate correctly if searching for a timer recording time or if the clock on the recording VCR has been adjusted using the CLOCK ADJUSTMENT function.

If a recording on a tape extends for over a one month period, the same day may be present twice on the tape. If such a day is searched, since there is no month search setting, the desired day may not be found.
