Time Counter

The time counter shows the actual time it takes to record a program

or play back a segment of a recorded tape. It helps locate the

beginning or end of programs you taped. The time counter resets to

0:00:00 whenever the tape is ejected from the VCR.

For example, if you record a 30-minute program at the beginning of

the tape and you want to go to the end of that program to begin

another recording, you would:

1.

Press INFO twice to display the time counter.

2.

Press CLEAR to reset the time counter to 0:00:00.

3.

Press FORWARD (FWD) to forward the tape until the time

counter reads 0:30:00.

4.

Press STOP. This is the approximate end of the program. (You

may want to press PLAY to verify.) Now, you can begin

recording at this spot.

5.

Press INFO to remove the time counter from the screen and

return to the normal display mode.
