TV Colour System
Different countries use different television colour systems.
Tapes recorded in the PAL or NTSC system can be played
back on this unit. Usually, the picture on the TV screen will
be in black and white when you play back a tape that is
recorded in a different colour system.
Tapes recorded in the NTSC system can be played back on
this unit and a PAL system TV set. This feature is only avail-
able in the SP mode. When playing back such tapes, the
picture may roll up or down, shrink vertically and black bars
may appear both at the top and bottom of the screen. Adjust
the vertical hold control on your TV, if the TV features this
control.
NOTE: When playing an NTSC tape playback picture may
become blurred or picture noise may appear during
speed search, slow motion or still mode. This is not a
malfunction.
