About NTSC Playback

● Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at

the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction on

the part of either the video recorder or the TV.

● The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected

using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot

be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.)

● The counter and tape remaining time readings will be

incorrect.

● During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture

will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour.

● Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of

superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.

The recorder assesses the quality of the tape once you initiate

playback.

START RECORDING

Press and hold RECORD and press PLAY on the remote,

or press RECORD on the recorder.

START PLAYBACK

DURING B.E.S.T.

Press PLAY.

● The recorder adjusts the playback picture quality

based on the quality of the tape in use.

● B.E.S.T. is active during Auto Tracking. "BEST"

appears blinking on the recorder’s display panel.

B.E.S.T. COMPLETE

N O TES:

● When watching a tape recorded with "B.E.S.T." set to "ON", it

is recommended that you leave B.E.S.T. on during playback as

well.

● When watching a rental tape or one recorded on another

video recorder, or when using this recorder as the player for

editing, set B.E.S.T. to your preference by performing steps 1

through 5 on page 20.

● "BEST" only appears at the beginning of automatic tracking.

Even though it doesn't appear after that, the B.E.S.T. function

is operative.

● The recorder spends approximately 7 seconds

assessing the condition of the tape, then begins

recording.

N O TES:

● The B.E.S.T. system works only after a tape has been inserted

and the Record mode is first initiated. It does not work during

recording.

● In the case of timer recording, the B.E.S.T. system works

before recording is initiated.

● Once the cassette is ejected, the B.E.S.T. data is cancelled.

The next time the cassette is used for recording, B.E.S.T. is re-

performed.

● Pressing the recorder's RECORD button while "BEST" is

displayed does not start Instant Timer Recording (੬ pg. 19).

ATTEN TIO N

Since the B.E.S.T. system works before recording actually

starts, there is a delay of approximately 7 seconds after

RECORD and PLAY on the remote are pressed, or RECORD

on the recorder is pressed. To make sure you record the

desired scene or programme in its entirety, first perform the

following steps:

1) Press and hold PAUSE and press RECORD to engage the

RECORD PAUSE mode.

● The recorder then automatically checks the condition

of the tape and, after approximately 7 seconds, re-

enters RECORD PAUSE.

2) Press PLAY to start recording.

● If you want to bypass the B.E.S.T. system and begin

recording immediately, set "B.E.S.T." to "OFF" in step 4

on page 20.

Video Channel (RF Output Channel) is the channel on which your TV receives picture and sound signals from the video recorder

through the RF cable.

IMPO RTAN T

Perform the following steps only if —

— Video Channel Set has not been done correctly by the Auto Set Up function (੬ pg. 4).

— you set up the recorder's tuner by Preset Download (੬ pg. 6) instead of using the Auto Set Up function.

— interference appears in the TV picture after you have moved to a different area or a new station has started broadcasting in

your area.

— you change the connection between your recorder and TV from RF connection to AV connection, or vice versa.

If you have connected the video recorder to your TV via both the RF cable and a 21-pin SCART cable (AV connec-

tion), since you do not need the video channel you have to set the video channel to off.

If you have connected the video recorder to your TV via the RF cable only (RF connection), you have to set the correct

video channel.

Before performing the following steps, make sure the recorder's power is off and there is no cassette inserted in the recorder.

Then set your TV to UHF channel 50.
