To watch another TV programme while recording
1
If the TV is connected to the VCR using an audio/video cable, set the
TV to TV input. If the TV is connected to the VCR using only the aerial
cable, skip this step.
2
Select another programme position on the TV.
To save a recording
To prevent accidental erasure, break off the
safety tab as illustrated. To record on a tape
again, cover the tab hole with adhesive tape.
To record NTSC colour system programmes
NTSC colour signals can be recorded on this VCR.
For tape speed, select SP or EP in step 4.
EP provides recording time three times as long as SP, however, SP produces
better picture quality.
When playing back, the VCR automatically detects the tape speed.
Tips
• To select a programme position, you can use the programme number buttons on the

followed by the programme number buttons.
• You can select a video source from the LINE-1 IN or the LINE 2 IN jacks using the

information won't be recorded on the tape.
• If you don't want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV.
Notes
• When you play back a tape recorded in the PAL or MESECAM colour system,
streaks may appear even if the COLOR SYSTEM switch is set to PAL/MESECAM.
If so, select the colour system PAL or MESECAM in the PAL/MESECAM option of
the SET UP MENU. (For details, see page 59.)
• When the KARAOKE ON/OFF switch is set to ON, the VCR displays the karaoke
