VIEWING A VIDEO TAPE
Loading a Video Tape
1. Turn on the TV and set it to the same chan-
nel as the VCR’s 3-CH-4 switch.
Note: If you are using a TV/monitor that is
connected to the VCR’s
AUDIO/VIDEO OUT
jacks, set the TV/monitor to the video
mode.
2. Hold the cassette with the main label fac-
ing up and the spine facing out from the
VCR. Then insert the cassette into the
VCR’s compartment and gently push the
center of its spine until the VCR draws it in.
The VCR automatically turns on. If the erase-
protection tab has been removed from the cas-
sette, playback automatically begins (see
“Erase Protection” on Page 27).
Caution: Never insert anything except a VHS
video cassette into the cassette compartment.
Anything else might damage the VCR.

adjusts tracking, but you can manually

audio you want the Model 62 to play back,
press
SAP/HiFi until an arrow appears next
to the desired audio mode indicator ( HiFi
or NORMAL ) on the TV screen.

standard audio track, regardless of the
audio output setting.

tape, press STOP .
5. To eject the tape, press STOP EJECT on
the VCR.
Notes:
• If the tape reaches the end before you

matically stops the tape and completely
rewinds it. If the erase-protection tab has
been removed, the VCR then ejects the
cassette.
