Adjusting the playback picture
Manual tracking
The unit usually makes tracking adjustments, but you may need to
do it manually if noise appears on a tape recorded on other
equipment.
During play
Press [TRACKING/V-LOCK +] or
[TRACKING/V-LOCK –].
Repeat until the noise disappears.
To return to auto tracking
Press both [TRACKING/V-LOCK +] and [TRACKING/V-LOCK –]
simultaneously.
To remove the noise from a paused picture
Start slow play, then adjust the tracking.
Note
≥This function may not work with some tapes.
≥You can also adjust the tracking with [CH W X] on the main unit.
Vertical locking adjustment
Adjust the vertical synchronization to stop the picture from jiggling
while paused.
While paused
Press [TRACKING/V-LOCK +] or
[TRACKING/V-LOCK –].
Repeat until the jiggling stops.
To return to the standard position
Press both [TRACKING/V-LOCK +] and [TRACKING/V-LOCK –]
simultaneously.

the main unit.
VHS Index Search System (VISS)
The unit automatically records special index signals on the tape
every time a recording is started (via [¥ REC], or timer recording).
The index search function makes use of these index signals to let
you find the beginning of a desired programme quickly and easily.
While stopped or during normal play
Press [:] or [9].
≥Each press increases the number of skips.
To cancel the index search
Press [∫].
Note
≥Up to 20 index signals can be searched for in both directions.
≥If you press either one of the buttons too much, you can control the
number of skips by pressing the opposite button.
≥This feature may not work correctly if the index signals are too
close together. Make recordings of at least 5 minutes.
Changing audio
During play
Press [AUDIO].
The audio changes as follows:
LR (Stereo) > L > R > No display (Normal audio track)
