Helpful Hints

• Pressing the S-VHS ET button has no

effect on an S-VHS tape.

• To obtain the highest quality recording

and to play pictures over a longer peri-

od, S-VHS recording on S-VHS tape is

recommended.

Press the S-VHS ET button again to cancel S-VHS ET

recording.

• Label S-VHS ET recordings so you can

easily distinguish them from regular

VHS recordings.

• S-VHS ET recordings also can be

played on an S-VHSVCR or a VHSVCR

equipped with SQPB (S-VHS QUASI

PLAYBACK). However, there may be

cases where S-VHS ET playback is not

possible on a particularVCR.

• Frequent still, frame-by-frame, and slow

motion playback may damage the

tape and cause the picture quality to

decline.

• With some tapes, better picture quality

may not be obtained even with S-VHS

ET recording.Test a recording first to

make sure better results can be

obtained.

• Use high grade tapes for good results.

36 Setting Up the VCR Plus+ Programming System

First, fill in the boxes on this page. It will only take a few minutes, and you must do it if you want the VCR

Plus+ programming system to work properly.

Since the channel numbers of the stations you receive may not be the same as the station numbers, and

since channel numbers differ from area to area, you must program the VCR with your local channel infor-

mation.To fill in the boxes, you will need 1) a cable channel list, if applicable (you can request one from your

cable company), and 2) a chart that lists VCR Plus+ channel numbers, which you can find in your TV guide

or the TV listings of your local newspaper.

NOTE: If you are using a Cable Box/DBS and are not using the Controller, the Cable/TV

channel m ust be 03 or 04 (the Cable Box/DBS output channel) for every VCR Plus+ channel.

Timer Recording Speed Setting 47

If a program is recording in SP and there is not enough tape to

record the entire program, the VCR automatically switches to SLP

to allow complete recording if TIMER REC SPEED is set to AUTO.

This feature is especially useful when you set a timer recording for

a program that is more than two hours long.

For example, when you record a program of 140 minutes in length

onto a 120-minute tape, the program is recorded in SP for about

110 minutes and in SLP for about 30 minutes.
