Audio Features
The audio you select affects both tape playback and recordings.
Note: The TV/VCR must be properly connected to a stereo system using audio/video cables
to hear stereo sound.
Press the SOUND button on the remote to select the type of audio you want to listen to or
record. You can use the AUDIO ADJUST menu in the next chapter to adjust the sound.
Reception
Some TV programs are broadcast with stereo audio or a Second Audio Program (SAP) which
offers a second language. The SOUND button on the remote lets you select the type of audio
you want to listen to or record. Press the SOUND button on the remote repeatedly to switch
between STEREO, SAP or MONO.
•
STEREO
Used to hear/record normal or stereo broadcast TV. ST appears on the TV
screen when stereo is being broadcast.

SAP
Used to hear/record a Second Audio Program. SAP appears on the TV screen when
stereo is being broadcast. Records the selected audio (SAP or Main).
•
Mono

Note: The TV/VCR defaults to mono if the stereo signal is weak, too noisy, or the
program isn’t being broadcast in stereo (no indicator appears on the screen).
Tape Playback
The VCR records audio on both the Hi-Fi stereo and linear tracks on the tape. Hi-Fi sound is
recorded on separate left and right stereo channels. Monaural sound is recorded on the linear
track. Records the audio (SAP or Main) selected with the SOUND button. To enjoy Hi-Fi sound,
connect your TV/VCR to a stereo system using the audio jacks.
