USING THE GAME MODE

control setting for viewing video games or simi-
lar programs. This setting softens the contrast
and is easier on the eyes.

off.

2. Press PLAY/ s or STOP/ t to select USER’S
SET UP , then press F.FWD/ . The user’s
set up menu appears.

until ON appears next to GAME MODE (to
turn on game mode) or until OFF appears
(to turn it off).

settings, the Model 36 automatically sets the
game mode to
OFF .
USING THE COUNTER
Your Model 36’s counter shows how long a tape
has been running, in hours, minutes, and sec-
onds. To display the counter, repeatedly press
DISPLAY until COUNT and the counter appear at
the bottom of the TV screen. To reset the
counter to 0:00:00, press
COUNTER RESET .
Note: Because the Model 36’s counter reads
special signals recorded on the tape, the
counter might stop while you fast-forward or re-
wind through a blank section on the tape. This is
normal.
Using Counter Return
Follow these steps to use the counter to easily
return to a selected point on the tape.
1. During playback, repeatedly press DISPLAY
until COUNT and the counter appear.
2. When you see the location on the tape that
you want to return to later, press COUNTER

Step 2, press STOP then F.FWD/ or REW/
. The tape fast-forwards or rewinds and
automatically stops at 0:00:00 .
Notes:
• The tape usually stops exactly at
0:00:00 . However, depending on the
tape you use, it might stop a few seconds
sooner or later.
• When the tape is stopped at or near
0:00:00 , you can continue to move it for-
ward or backward from there. – appears if
you move it backward from
0:00:00 .
To reset the Model 36 so it does not stop the
tape at the point you selected in Step 2, repeat-
edly press
COUNTER MEMORY until COUNT ap-
pears next to the counter.
USING TIME SEARCH
Your Model 36 lets you quickly move forward or
backward through recorded material on a tape.
For example, if you recorded three half-hour
programs on a tape and you want to see the
third program, you can set the Model 36 to
quickly move the tape past the first hour of re-
corded material.
