Dear Customer,
Thank you for purchasing the JVC VHS video cassette recorder. Before use, please read the safety information and precautions
contained in the following pages to ensure safe use of your new VCR.
CAUTIONS
WARNING:
TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK
HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
CAUTION:
This video cassette recorder should be used with AC
120V`, 60Hz only.
To prevent electric shocks and fire hazards, DO NOT use
any other power source.
CAUTION:
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE
BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
ATTENTION:
POUR ÉVITER LES CHOCS ÉLECTRIQUES, INTRODUIRE
LA LAME LA PLUS LARGE DE LA FICHE DANS LA BORNE
CORRESPONDANTE DE LA PRISE ET POUSSER
JUSQU'AU FOND.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
Failure to heed the following precautions may result in
damage to the VCR, remote control or video cassette.
1. DO NOT place the VCR . . .
... in an environment prone to extreme temperatures or
humidity.
... in direct sunlight.
... in a dusty environment.
... in an environment where strong magnetic fields are
generated.
... on a surface that is unstable or subject to vibration.
2. DO NOT block the VCR’s ventilation openings.
3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the VCR or remote control.
4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of the
VCR or remote control.
5. AVOID violent shocks to the VCR during transport.
**MOISTURE CONDENSATION
Moisture in the air will condense on the VCR when you move it
from a cold place to a warm place, or under extremely humid
conditions—just as water droplets form on the surface of a glass
filled with cold liquid. Moisture condensation on the head drum
will cause damage to the tape. In conditions where condensa-
tion may occur, keep the VCR’s power turned on for a few hours
to let the moisture dry before inserting a tape.
**ABOUT HEAD CLEANING
Accumulation of dirt and other particles on the video heads
may cause the playback picture to become blurred or inter-
rupted. Be sure to contact your nearest JVC dealer if such
troubles occur.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as close to the point of
cable entry as practical.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications not approved by JVC could void
user's authority to operate the equipment.
n Cassettes marked "S-VHS" and "VHS" can be used with this
video cassette recorder. However, S-VHS recordings are
possible only with cassettes marked "S-VHS".
By using S-VHS ET it is possible to record and play back with
S-VHS picture quality on VHS cassettes with this VCR.
n As an ENERGY STAR
®
Partner, JVC has determined that this
product or product model meets the ENERGY STAR
®
guidelines
for energy efficiency.

IMPORTANT PRODUCT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. But
improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire
hazards. This product has been engineered and manufactured
to assure your personal safety. In order not to defeat the built-in
safeguards, observe the following basic rules for its installation,
use and servicing.
ATTENTION:
Follow and obey all warnings and instructions marked on your
product and its operating instructions. For your safety, please
read all the safety and operating instructions before you operate
this product and keep this booklet for future reference.
INSTALLATION
1. Grounding or Polarization
(A) Your product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-
current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
(B) Your product may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type
plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will
only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety
feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact
your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
2. Power Sources
Operate your product only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or
local power company. If your product is intended to operate
from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
3. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
4. Power Cord Protection
Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against
them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
5. Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation.
To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered.
• Do not block the openings by placing the product on a bed,
sofa, rug or other similar surface.
• Do not place the product in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
connectors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode.
2. Lightning
For added protection for this product during a lightning storm,
or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna
or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to
lightning and power-line surges.
3. Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal.

FINAL PREPARATION FOR
USE
5
Power on the VCR and if you are connected to the TV
using the RF connector, select the VCR channel (3 or 4)
by setting the switch on the rear of the VCR as shown in
the illustration.
You can now perform simple playback (Z pg. 22) or
simple recording (Z pg. 23).
NOTES:
The VCR channel is the channel on the TV which will display
the audio and video signals from the VCR. The VCR's CH3-
CH4 switch, on the back of the VCR, sets the VCR channel to
CH3 or CH4.
The CH3–CH4 switch is preset to the CH3 position.

INITIAL SETTINGS
Plug & Play
The Plug & Play function sets the clock and tuner channels
automatically when power is first connected to the VCR. The
antenna cable must be connected for the Plug & Play function.
The time and date can be set automatically from clock setting
data that is transmitted by one of the regular TV broadcast
channels. We call this TV channel the “Host Channel” and it is
a PBS channel in your area.
PLUG & PLAY SETUP
1
Connect the antenna cable to the VCR (Z pg. 6). Then
connect the VCR’s power plug to an AC outlet. Do not
power on the VCR. The clock and tuner channels will
be set automatically.
NOTES:
Auto clock set is performed first. The auto clock set
function scans all the channels received by your VCR
to find the Host Channel and then sets the clock.
"Auto" blinks on the front display panel during Auto
clock set.
Auto channel set is performed next. The auto channel
set function scans all the channels that are receivable
by your VCR. It then automatically assigns each
receivable channels to the CH
5
(+/–) buttons. It
skips non-receivable channels. During auto channel
set the channel numbers are displayed as they are
scanned and set.
When Plug & Play has been completed successfully the
correct time is displayed.
If an incorrect time or "– –:– –" appears on the display
panel, see "What To Do If Plug & Play Has Failed" on
next page.
ATTENTION
If you use a cable box, Plug & Play will not function; set
the clock and tuner channels manually. (Z pg.11 – 15)
Auto Clock Set/Auto Tuner Set
IMPORTANT
Don’t press any buttons on the VCR or remote while Plug
& Play is in progress.
If you perform Plug & Play successfully, there’s no need to
perform the Clock (Z pg. 11) and Tuner (Z pg. 14)
procedures. If, however, you want to add or delete
channels, refer to “Add Or Delete A Channel” on page 15.

INFORMATION
If "AUTO CLOCK" is set to "ON" at the Clock Set screen on page 12, the clock will be adjusted automatically by the host
channel every hour on the hour (except for 11:00 PM, midnight, 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM) by the incoming PBS channel clock
setting data. (This automatic clock adjustment can only be performed when the VCR’s power is turned off. The clock will be
adjusted on the hour based on the time displayed on the VCR, not on the actual real time.) The default setting of "AUTO
CLOCK" is "ON".
If the memory backup fails, because of a power outage or because the AC was removed from the VCR, Plug & Play will be
performed when power is restored to the VCR.
What To Do If Plug & Play Has Failed
If an incorrect time is displayed on the front display panel, you may be receiving the clock setting data of a PBS channel from
an adjacent time zone, or an incorrect PBS channel from a cable TV system. In this case, perform the Semi-Auto (Z pg. 12) or
Manual Clock Set (Z pg. 13) procedure. Auto channel set has already taken place and it need not be set again.
If “- -:- -” appears on the display, your antenna cable may not be connected to the VCR or there may not be a Host PBS signal
available in your area. Ensure that the antenna cable is connected correctly. Then power on and power off the VCR; the Plug &
Play function will be automatically reactivated and "Auto" will be displayed on the VCR's front panel. If Plug & Play is not
performed but the antenna cable is connected correctly, perform the Manual Clock Set procedure (Z pg. 13). Auto channel set
has not yet taken place, so please also perform the “Set Receivable Channels” procedure (Z pg. 14).

connectors to use the cable box.
If your cable box doesn’t have AUDIO and VIDEO
OUT connectors . . .
. . . connect the antenna output connector on the cable
box to the ANTENNA IN connector on the rear of your
VCR.
Set the VCR tuner to the same channel as the cable box
RF output (see page 17 also).
NOTE:
When connecting your cable box refer to its instruction
manual.

Suggested Location
Place the cable box on top of the VCR. Attach the VCR's
Controller to the top of the VCR with the Controllers transmitter
pointed towards the cable box’s remote sensor.
ATTENTION:
The Controller can also control a DBS receiver. If both a cable
box and a DBS receiver are used, position the controller so its
signal reaches the remote control sensors of both the cable box
and DBS receiver.
About Your Cable Box
This VCR has two separate methods to control your Cable Box.
The VCR's Wireless Remote Control Unit can control your
Cable Box.
This eliminates the need for a separate Cable Box Remote
Control Unit.
The VCR's Controller can also control your Cable Box.
This allows the VCR to change your Cable Box's channel
number during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the VCR's
Remote Control unit, refer to page 62. To set up the Controller

NOTES:
Although the supplied Controller is compatible with many
different cable box brands, it is possible that it will not work
with your cable box.
If your cable box doesn’t respond to any code between 1 and 25,
you can’t use the Controller to change cable box channels. In this
case, make sure to leave the cable box turned on and tuned to the
proper channel before the scheduled start of timer recording.
Please contact your cable company about the possibility of
exchanging your current cable box with one that is compat-
ible with your VCR.
The VCR can only change the cable box channel through the
Controller during timer recording.
If your cable box is one that can’t be operated with a remote
control (because it has no remote sensor), you can’t use the
Controller to change its channels. Make sure to leave the
cable box turned on and tuned to the proper channel before
the scheduled start of timer recording.
If the VCR's memory backup expires because of a power
failure, set the cable box output channel and brand again.
For customers in U.S.A.: If you are unable to set the
Controller, please contact JVC toll free at 1-800-252-5722.
When the VCR's clock has not been set (with AUTO
CLOCK set to ON), if you press OK in step 7, "CABLE BOX

CABLE
BOX
The following procedure is required if you receive satellite channels
through a DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) Receiver. The Controller
allows the VCR to automatically switch the DBS Receiver's channels
during timer recording.
NOTES:
The VCR can automatically change the DBS Receiver channels
using the controller when the VCR has been programmed using
Express Timer Programming (
Z
pg. 49).
Because satellite programming does not use PlusCode; the
Controller can not change the DBS Receiver channels during
VCR Plus+ Timer Recording.
If a cable box is also used it is recommended that you
connect the DBS receiver to your VCR's A/V inputs and the
cable box to your VCR's antenna input.

Suggested Location
Place the DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) receiver on top of the

ATTENTION:
The Controller can also control a cable box. If both a DBS
receiver and a cable box are used, position the controller so its
signal reaches the remote control sensors of both the DBS
receiver and cable box.
About Your DBS Receiver
This VCR has two separate methods to control your DBS Receiver.

NOTES:
The Commercial Advance Record processes marks the tape when the picture fades to black and the audio fades to silence.
Normally there is a period of black and no audio at the beginning and end of commercials.
A black screen or a scene with no audio signal during a program may be detected as the start or end of a commercial.
When using the timer to record two adjacent shows on the same channel, better commercial detection accuracy can be
obtained by programming each show separately.
If you record over a commercial start or end mark the Commercial Advance feature will not work correctly.
Commercial Advance tested with 6 hours recordings, longer recordings may be possible depending on the number of
commercials contained in the broadcast.
The VCR will resume normal playback after skipping 15 minutes of tape if no commercial group end mark is detected.
If the end of the tape is reached during recording, the display as illustrated in step
1
appears, then...
in the case of timer recording or Instant Timer Recording, after step
2
takes place, the cassette will be ejected and the power
will shut off.
in the case of normal recording, after step
2
takes place, the VCR will rewind to the beginning of the tape.
During automatic commercial skipping, if the user presses STOP or PLAY, the VCR will resume normal play; furthermore, if
the tape is reversed to before the commercial group and played, the commercial group will not automatically be skipped.
If an index code or the end of a recording is detected during Commercial Advance's forward fast-motion playback, normal
playback resumes automatically.
Commercial Advance disables commercial marking when the recording is less than 15 minutes.
Commercial Advance does not mark the start of a commercial group when it is in the first or last two minutes of a recording.
Commercial Advance does not mark commercial groups which are less than 59 seconds or groups which contain only one
commercial.
Some portions of programs may be detected as commercials.
Some commercials may not be detected properly.

Recording
Perform steps 13 on page 23 ("Simple Recording") before
continuing.
ATTENTION
n As calibration takes place before recording actually starts,
there is a delay of about 7 seconds after REC and PLAY on
the remote, or REC on the VCR's front panel, are pressed.
To make sure you record the desired scene or program
completely, first perform the following steps:
1) Press and hold PAUSE, and press REC to engage the
RECORD PAUSE mode.
The VCR then automatically checks the condition of
the tape and, after about 7 seconds, re-enters
RECORD PAUSE.
2) Press PLAY to start recording.
n If you want to bypass Video Calibration and start
recording right away, set "VIDEO CALIBRATION" to
"OFF" in step 4 of the Preparation procedure (Z pg. 38).
START PLAYBACK

Press PLAY.
The VCR adjusts the
playback picture quality
based on the quality of
the tape in use.
NOTES:
When using rental tapes,
or tapes recorded on other VCRs, set “VIDEO
CALIBRATION” in step 4 of the Preparation proce-
dure to either “ON” or “OFF” as desired to give the
best picture (
Z
pg. 38).
The Video Calibration screen only appears at the
beginning of automatic tracking. Even though the
screen doesn't appear after that, the Video calibration
function is operative.
To display the Video Calibration screen, “SUPERIM-
POSE” must be set to "ON" or the Video Calibration
screen will not appear (
Z
pg. 29).
START RECORDING
1
Press and hold REC and
press PLAY on the remote
control, or press REC on
the VCR's front panel.
The VCR takes about 7
seconds to assess the
quality of the tape in
use, then recording
begins with the picture
level optimized.
NOTES:
Calibration occurs
immediately prior to
both the first SP and the
first EP recording after
inserting the cassette. It
does not take place
during recording.
In the case of timer
recording, calibration
takes place for both SP and EP before the first timer
recording after inserting the cassette (regardless of the
tape speed selected for that recording).
Once the cassette is ejected, the calibration data is
canceled. The next time the cassette is used for
recording, calibration is re-performed.
While Video Calibration is operative, the PAUSE
button will not function.
To display the Video Calibration screen, "SUPERIM-
POSE" must be set to "ON" or the Video Calibration
screen will not appear (
Z
pg. 29).

You can play back S-VHS ET recordings not only on this VCR but also on another VHS VCR equipped with S-VHS ET.
* It is recommended to specifically label S-VHS ET recordings so you can easily distinguish them from regular VHS recordings.
S-VHS ET recordings can also be played back on an S-VHS VCR or a VHS VCR equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI PLAY-
BACK) function. However, there may be cases where S-VHS ET playback is not possible on a particular VCR.
Frequent still, frame-by-frame and slow-motion playback, TIME SCAN SEARCH may damage the tape and cause picture
degradation.
With some tapes, better picture quality may not be obtained even with S-VHS ET recording. It is recommended that you do
test record beforehand to make sure whether better results can be obtained.
High Grade tapes are recommended for superior results.
Make sure that "VIDEO CALIBRATION" is set to "ON" at the Function screen (
Z
pg. 38).
During S-VHS ET playback, noise may appear depending on tape quality.
Noise may appear during still, frame- by-frame, slow-motion playback and TIME SCAN SEARCH.
If the playback picture becomes blurred or interrupted, use a cleaning cassette.

IMPORTANT
If you have moved to a different area or if a broadcasting
station's channel number has been changed, the wrong VCR
or CABLE CH number will be displayed on the VCR Plus+
program screen (Z step 5 on page 46). When this happens,
perform the following steps to set the correct the Guide
Channel number for that station.
To ensure that VCR Plus+Timer Recording operates correctly it
is necessary to set the VCR Plus+ "Guide Channel Set " for each
station. Please read the following information carefully.
VCR Plus+ Guide Channel Matching
VCR Plus+ programming system assigns a VCR Plus+ "Guide
Channel" to broadcast and cable TV channels. These Guide
Channel numbers are also called the VCR Plus+ Channel Codes.
Most TV listings have a section, usually a chart, indicating the
"Guide Channel" numbers assigned to each station. For accurate
VCR Plus+ programming the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel number
for each station should match the channel number on which it is
received in your area.
NOTES:
In many instances the VCR Plus+ Guide Channel numbers for
cable and broadcast TV stations DO NOT match the channel
number on which it is received by your VCR or cable box.
Check your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for
details.
Many broadcast TV stations can be viewed on cable. Check
your TV listing, or contact your cable supplier for details.

This facility allows you to automatically record a satellite
program which is timer-programmed on your external satellite
receiver. Connect a satellite receiver to the VCR's rear AUDIO/
VIDEO IN or S VIDEO IN* (L-1) connectors and program the
timer on the satellite receiver; the VCR starts recording when the
signals input from the satellite receiver to the rear AUDIO/VIDEO
IN or S VIDEO IN (L-1) connectors, and when there is no input
signals the VCR stops recording and the power shuts off.
* If you have connected the satellite receiver to the VCR's
S VIDEO IN connector, set "REAR AUX INPUT" to "S-VIDEO"
at the Function screen (Z pg. 56).
Automatic Sat-
ellite Program
Recording
ATTENTION
Be sure not to turn on the satellite receiver before the
program is executed; otherwise, the VCR will start
recording when the satellite receiver's power is turned on.
If you have connected another appliance other than a
satellite receiver to the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN or S
VIDEO IN (L-1) connectors, be sure not to engage the
Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode; otherwise, the VCR will
start recording when the connected appliance's power is
turned on.
Auto Satellite Prog recording and timer-recording cannot
be done at the same time.

ENGAGE AUTO SATELLITE
PROG REC MODE
2
Press and hold REC LINK for about 2 seconds. The
button lights up and the VCR turns off automatically.
To disengage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode, press
REC LINK. The button's light goes off.
If the VCR's power is off, it is not possible to engage
the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode.
NOTES:
Auto Satellite Prog recording is only possible with the rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN or S VIDEO IN (L-1) connectors.
When the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode is engaged or the VCR's power is turned off after Auto Satellite Prog recording is finished,
the VCR will not enter the Timer mode even though "AUTO TIMER" is set to "ON".
For timer programming of the satellite receiver, refer to the instruction manual of the satellite receiver.
Auto Satellite Prog recording is not possible if your satellite receiver does not have a timer.
The REC LINK button's light blinks while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.
Pressing the VCR's POWER button while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress turns off the VCR's power and disengages the
Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode.
If there is more than one satellite program you wish to record with Auto Satellite Prog Recording, it is not possible to set a different
tape speed for each; the tape speed selected in step 1 will apply to all the programs for Auto Satellite Prog recording.
The Active Video Calibration (
Z
pg. 38) does not work while Auto Satellite Prog recording is in progress.
Auto Clock (
Z
pg. 12) does not work when the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode is engaged.
Depending on the type of satellite receiver, the VCR may not record a short portion at the beginning of the program or may record
slightly longer than the actual length of the program.
If you engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode when the satellite receiver's power is on, the VCR will not start Auto Satellite Prog
recording even though the REC LINK button's light blinks. When the satellite receiver shuts off once and is turned back on again,
the VCR starts recording.
You can also record a program from your cable system in the same way if the system has a timer and is connected to the VCR's
rear AUDIO/VIDEO IN or S VIDEO IN (L-1) connectors.
When you press the VCR's REC LINK button to engage the Auto Satellite Prog Rec mode, if the REC LINK button does not light but
instead blinks quickly even though your satellite receiver's power is off, Auto Satellite Prog Recording will not work properly with
that satellite receiver*.
If this is the case, perform "Express Timer Programming" (
Z
pg. 49) to timer-record a satellite program.
* Some satellite receivers output signals even if the power is off. Auto Satellite Prog Recording is not possible with those satellite receivers.

Advantages Of S-VHS Editing
S-VHS allows you make high resolution video recordings
when dubbing from one VCR to another.
You can edit from VHS to S-VHS, from S-VHS to VHS, or
from S-VHS to S-VHS.
From VHS to S-VHS (VIDEO-VIDEO connection): Record
VHS playback signals in the S-VHS mode. Although the
picture quality is inherently limited by the orignal VHS
source material, the edited tape has better picture quality
than those made by VHS-to-VHS editing.
From S-VHS to VHS (VIDEO-VIDEO connection): Because
the picture quality of the source material is very high, the
edited tape has better picture quality than those made by
VHS-to-VHS editing.
From S-VHS to S-VHS (S-VIDEO connection): A high
resolution copy is made of a high resolution original S-
VHS tape with minimal picture degradation. This is the
preferred method of video dubbing.
S-Video cable

NOTES:
If you use an auxiliary input to connect a cable box or DBS
receiver, make sure that the correct AUX INPUT ("VIDEO" or
"S-VIDEO") is selected after you have finished editing (

When a Master Edit Control-equipped JVC camcorder is
used, the camcorder is capable of controlling your VCR.
The mini-plug cable is a mono 3.5 mm mini-plug to

"1" instead of "2" in step 2.
You can control two VCRs with the same remote control by
switching the remote's code between A and B (Z Step 2),
pressing "1" for A-code commands and "2" for B-code
commands.
Control Two JVC VCRs
The remote control is capable of controlling two JVC VCRs
independently; one set to respond to your remote control's A
code control signals and another set to respond to B code
control signals. The remote control is preset to send A code
signals because your VCR is initially set to respond to A code
signals. You can easily modify your VCR to respond to B code
signals.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
PLAYBACK
Q. What happens if the end of the tape is reached
during playback or search?
A. The tape is automatically rewound to the beginning.
Q. Can the VCR indefinitely remain in the still mode?
A. No. It stops automatically after 5 minutes to protect
the heads.
Q. During search, still and frame-by-frame playback,
the picture is intermittent. What’s the cause?
A. Picture loss occurs when these types of playback are
attempted with a tape recorded in LP mode. Pressing
PLAY to return to normal playback will restore the
picture.
Q. When playing back programs that have been timer-
recorded with consecutive times (such one program
from 8:00 to 9:00 and another one from 9:00 to
10:00), the picture and sound become momentarily
distorted at the point where the first program ends
and the second program begins. Is this a
malfunction?
A. No. This is normal.
Q. Other than preventing further recording, what effect
does removing the safety tab have?
A. It disables marking of index codes.
Q. Sometimes, during Index Search, the VCR can’t find
the program I want to see. Why not?
A. There may be index codes too close together.
Q. During playback, on-screen operational indicators
sometimes jitter. Why does this happen?
A. If the condition of the tape being played back is not
good, jittering of the video (including on-screen
indicators) may occur.
RECORDING
Q. When I pause and then resume a recording, the end
of the recording before the pause is overlapped by
the new recording. Why does this happen?
A. This is normal. It reduces distortion at the pause and
resume points.
Q. Can the VCR indefinitely remain in the Record-Pause
mode?
A. No. The VCR automatically goes to its Stop mode
after 5 minutes to protect the heads. When paused
during Instant Timer Recording (ITR), the VCR shuts
off automatically after 5 minutes.
Q. What happens if the tape runs out during recording?
A. The VCR automatically rewinds it to the beginning.
TIMER RECORDING
Q. REC and remain lit on the front display panel. Is
there a problem?
A. No. This is a normal condition for a timer recording
in progress.
Q. Can I program the timer while I’m watching a tape
or a TV broadcast?
A. Yes, but while you are setting the timer you won't see
the tape's or broadcast program's picture as it is
replaced by the on-screen menu. The audio from the
tape or broadcast program will be present during the
setting of the timer.
