Automatic switch off of special functions
Many functions (e.g. pause, still picture, search) switch themselves off
automatically after a short time in order to protect the cassette and to save
energy.
Do I need to change the playback speed when playing back LP
recordings?
For playback, the correct recording speed 'SP?LP' will automatically be
selected. For more information, please read the section 'Selecting the
recording speed (SP/LP)' in the chapter 'Manual recording'.

Playing back NTSC cassettes

Cassettes that have been recorded in the NTSC standard (for example, American cassettes) can
be played back using this video recorder. However, this only works on PAL-television sets which
are suitable for a picture frequency of 60Hz.
When you play an NTSC cassette '60HZ' will appear on the display.
Some special features (for example, still picture) are not possible while you are playing an NTSC
cassette.
