To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure, break off the safety
tab as illustrated. To record on the same tape
again, cover the tab hole with adhesive tape.
Tips
• To select a programme position, you can use the programme number buttons on the remote
commander. For two-digit numbers, press the - (ten’s digit) button followed by the
programme number buttons.
• If you connect additional equipment to a LINE connector or jack, you can select the input
signal using the INPUT SELECT or PROG +/– buttons.
• The DISPLAY information appears on the TV screen indicating information about the
tape, but the information won’t be recorded on the tape.
• If you don’t want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV. When using a
decoder, make sure to leave it on.
Notes
• The DISPLAY information does not appear during still (pause) mode or slow-motion
playback.
• The DISPLAY information will not appear while playing an NTSC* 3 -recorded tape.
• If a tape has portions recorded in both PAL and NTSC* 3 systems, the time counter reading
will not be correct. This discrepancy is due to the difference between the counting cycles of
the two video systems.
• You cannot watch a PAY-TV/Canal Plus programme while recording another PAY-TV/Canal
Plus programme.* 2
• When you insert a non-standard commercially available tape, the remaining time may not be
