• Since the VCR does not display the index
marks, we recommend you list the record-
ings on each tape in order on the tape's
box, to make it easier to locate a particular
recording on the tape.
• Index search might not function properly
when two or more index marks are close to
each other.
• If you do not press any button within 10
seconds after you select
the VCR cancels index search.
• If you activate the direct access index
search at a tape position very close to an
index mark, the VCR might not count that
mark. See "Direct Access Index Search"
on Page 35.
• Recording over an index mark erases that
index mark.
