Recording stereo and bilingual programmes

In NICAM system

This VCR receives and records stereo and bilingual programmes based on the NICAM system (the NICAM indicator appears). When a stereo or bilingual programme is received, the STEREO indicator appears in the display window.

To record a NICAM programme, HIFI AUDIO in the OPTIONS-1 menu should be set to NICAM (initial setting). To check the menu setting, see page 66 for details.
