automatically marked on the tape when recording starts.

specific index and start playback from that point. Depending on the
direction selected, the indexes are numbered as follows.

result, it will recognize any indexes marked by other
VCRs using the same system and vice versa.

Select the direction in which the VCR is to search:
REW ( ) to search backwards ; or
F.F ( ) to search forwards.
Result: When the index is found, cassette playback starts.

Using the Tape Counter

The tape counter:
indicates the elapsed time in the play and record modes
(hours, minutes and seconds) ;
is reset when a cassette is inserted in the VCR ; and
enables you to find the beginning of a sequence easily.
To enable the remaining time to be calculated correctly,
you must indicate the type of cassette being used. See
page 22.
