Hi-fi audio is recorded onto the main track along
with the picture. Monaural sound is recorded onto
the normal audio track along the edge of the tape.

Notes

• To play a tape in stereo, you must use the A/V

connections.

• When you play a tape recorded in monaural, the sound

is heard in monaural regardless of the AUDIO setting.
