Index Search
The VCR has a “VHS Index Search System” that
automatically records an index mark on the tape every
time you start a recording.
During playback you can locate the program you want to
play by the number of index marks or by scanning. The VCR
will search forward or reverse from the location you are on
the tape.
To Search:
1. Press STOP.
2. Press SEARCH on the remote to display the INDEX
SEARCH screen.
3. If you want to search through a certain number of
index marks, press two number buttons to enter the
number of marks you want to search. Press CLEAR on
the remote to correct an entry.
4. Press FORWARD to search forward or REVERSE to search
in reverse. The VCR will locate your index mark and
begin playback. If you did not enter a specific index
number, the VCR will locate the next index mark and
begin playback.
5. Press STOP to end index searching.
Some index marks may be missed by the VCR:
• A mark too close to your location on the tape
• The mark at the beginning of a recorded segment of
five minutes or less
• The first index mark on the tape when you start at the
beginning of the tape

screen appears on the screen.
