Checking the
contents of a tape
You can display the program data list of
a SmartFile tape on the TV screen. It is
not necessary to insert the tape into the
VCR. This feature allows you to quickly find a specific program or to
find a tape with enough recording space.
The SmartFile check list can contain up to 12 programs.
Before you start…
• Turn on your TV and set it to the video channel.
