Playing cassettes

You can use this video recorder to play back recorded VHS video cassettes. You can operate
the video recorder using the remote control or the buttons on the front of the video recorder.
What does VHS mean?
'Video Home System' (VHS) has become the world-wide standard for the
playback and recording of amateur video cassettes. This popular standard
continues to be improved. Super VHS (S-VHS) provides a sharper picture and
less noise. Digital VHS (D-VHS) works with digital picture and sound signals.
Your video recorder can only record and play standard VHS cassettes.
