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
The SLV-EZ70AS can record NTSC signals from the LINE-1 IN, LINE-2 IN
and LINE-3 IN (SAT IN) jacks, and the SLV-EZ70NZ from the LINE-1 IN and
LINE-2 IN jacks.
To select the line input, press INPUT SELECT or PROG +/– so that "L1" or
"L2" (or "L3": SLV-EZ70AS only) appears in the display window.
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 and sound 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
remote commander. For two-digit numbers, press the ? (ten's digit) button
followed by the programme number buttons.
• You can select a video source from the LINE-1 IN or LINE-2 IN (or LINE-3 IN:
SLV-EZ70AS only) jacks. Press INPUT SELECT or PROG +/– to display "L1" or
"L2" (or "L3": SLV-EZ70AS only) in the display window. When you use
PROG +/–, "L1" or "L2" (or "L3": SLV-EZ70AS only) in the display window
appears between the lowest programme position and the highest one.
• The display appears on the TV screen indicating information about the tape, but the
information will not be recorded on the tape.
• If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV. When
using a SKY TELEVISION decoder, be sure to leave it on (SLV-EZ70NZ only).
Notes
• The display does not appear during still (pause) mode or slow-motion playback.
• It may take up to one minute for the VCR to calculate and display the remaining
tape length after you press DISPLAY.
• The remaining tape length does not appear while playing or recording in NTSC
system.
