To restore normal playback, press the PLAY button on either the remote control or the
camcorder.
Note: The indication showing double speed playback does not appear.
Note: When double speed playback is activated, both the picture and sound are played

sound to become warbled. (With some tapes the width of the noise band may vary or noise
may flow.)
Note: With some TVs, the synchronization may unlock and the picture may fluctuate or the
picture may become black-and-white.
