TRACKING
Your VCR has automatic tracking
which removes the streaks or
snow from the picture. Automatic
tracking
is activated when you
insert a tape or turn on the VCR. Occasionally you may need to
manually adjust tracking,
especially if the tape was recorded on a
different
VCR. Just use the TRACKING buttons to remove the
streaks or snow. You can also use tracking
when you PAUSE a
tape to reduce jittering
of the picture.
When you manually adjust the picture, automatic
tracking
is
turned
off. To turn automatic
tracking
back on, press both
TRACKING buttons
on the front of the VCR at the same time, or
eject the tape and re-insert it.
Tracking has no effect during recording--only
playback.
