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 recording

pause mode?

A. No. The VCR automatically stops 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 reaches its end 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 will not

see the tape’s or broadcast program’s picture as it is
replaced by the on-screen menu. (The sound from
the tape or broadcast program will be heard during
the timer setting.)

frame-by-frame playback, the picture is
intermittent. What’s the cause?

the picture.

distorted where the first program ends and the
second program begins. Is this a malfunction?
