misoperation. If you use another Sony VCR in
the commander mode VTR 2, we recommend
changing the commander mode or covering
the sensor of the VCR with black paper.

The index is automatically marked on a tape
when you start recording. If you mark the
index using the INDEX MARK button during

on the INDEX SEARCH screen, and the index
