Helpful Hints
• Recording options are on pages 30
- 39.
• You cannot record if the TV/VCR is
in Record Defeat mode (REC
DEFEATED will flash on-screen).
Details are on page 40.
• If you pause a recording for more
than five minutes, the TV/VCR will
switch to Stop mode automatically
to protect the video cassette tape
from damage.
• You can change the tape speed
with the (Tape) SPEED button while
a recording is in progress, but some
distortion may appear on the tape.
