Using the Playback Features
Automatic Tracking
The TV/VCR has automatic tracking which adjusts the
picture when playing a tape that was recorded on
another VCR. Automatic tracking is turned on
whenever a tape is inserted or the TV/VCR's power is
turned on.
Manual Tracking
Occasionally, you may need to manually adjust
tracking on a tape recorded on a different VCR or
camcorder. Tracking is used when playing a tape. It
has no effect during recording.
• When streaks or snow appear in the picture during
normal playback or slow motion, press TRACKING
up or down on the remote or CHANNEL up or down
on the TV/VCR for the best possible picture.
• To turn automatic tracking back on, press and hold
both of the CHANNEL buttons on the front of the
TV/VCR.
Time Counter
The time counter helps locate the beginning or end of
programs you taped. The time counter automatically
resets to 0:00:00 whenever a tape is inserted, or you
can press CLEAR when the time counter is displayed.
For example, if a 30-minute program was recorded at
the beginning of the tape and you wanted to record
another program after it, you would:
1. Insert the prerecorded tape.
0:00:00
2.
Press DISPLAY twice to display the time counter
and fast forward the tape until 31 minutes appears
on the screen. Then you can begin recording a
second program.
Commercial Scan
This is useful for skipping commercials or short
program segments.
Press SEARCH during playback to advance the tape
approximately 60 seconds.
