well for tapes recorded in SLP speed.

advance works well for tapes recorded in SLP speed.

Using the TV/VCR's Features
Index Search
The TV/VCR automatically records index marks on the tape each time you
begin recording. During playback you can locate the program you want to play
by the number of index marks. Your TV/VCR has two index playback features.
You can select a specific index number or search by scan and play.
To Select Scan and Play Index Playback:
1. Insert the pre-recorded tape and press STOP.
2. Press SKIP/SEARCH on the remote to display the Index Search screen.
3. Press FF on the remote to scan forward or REW to scan in reverse.
When the TV/VCR locates an index mark, it will stop and play a few
seconds of the program following the mark.
4. At any time during the search, press PLAY to stop searching and begin
playback, or press STOP to stop the search.
If the beginning or end of the tape is reached during the search, the
message "End of tape" appears.
