If the S-VHS ET indicator on the recorder's front panel is lit and the S-VHS ET
mode is activated, press S-VHS ET. The S-VHS ET indicator goes off.

indicator lights up on the front display panel regardless of the "S-VHS" mode setting.
You can play back PAL, NTSC and MESECAM tapes, or record PAL and SECAM*
signals on this recorder. Select the appropriate colour system.
* SECAM signals will be recorded as MESECAM on this recorder; MESECAM is the
designation for tapes with SECAM signals that have been recorded on a
MESECAM-compatible PAL video cassette recorder.
NOTES:
It is not possible to record in S-VHS if "MESECAM" is selected. The recording mode is
forced to change to VHS.
If "MESECAM" is selected when the tape speed is set to EP mode, the tape speed will be
forced to change to LP mode.
It is not possible to select EP mode if "MESECAM" is selected.
About NTSC Playback
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the
TV screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or the TV.
The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control
found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD
control.)
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be incorrect.
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there
may be a loss of colour.
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays
may be cut off during NTSC playback.
* The default setting is bold in the table below.
