NOTES:
• Index marks are a function of JVC-brand video decks. Therefore Index Search cannot be used on commercially produced
tapes or tapes recorded on non-JVC brand VCR's since these tapes will not have the JVC index marks recorded on them.
• If you try to begin an Index Search at a point on the tape between two programs, index search may not work correctly.
Either fast-forward or rewind the tape a bit and try index search again.
