Auto Head Cleaning System

When the tape is inserted or ejected, this system automatically cleans the drum and heads with a special
roller before recording or playback begins, protecting the heads and drum from dirt and preserving beautiful
picture quality.

Quick Start with Full Loading Mechanism

Your VCR has a standby function (Full Loading Mechanism) to allow immediate recording and playback.
After pressing REC or PLAYIXS, it takes about 2 seconds until recording or playback is engaged when in the
standby mode.

Auto Rental Mode

(This function only works when AUTO RENTAL mode on the MODE selection screen is set to ON.)
The convenient auto rental mode lets you enjoy playback with ease. When you insert a cassette with the
erasure protection tab removed (rental videos, etc.), your VCR automatically turns on the power, winds the
tape forward to find the recorded section, and plays back the tape. When the tape reaches the end of
recorded section, the VCR automatically rewinds the tape, ejects it and turns into POWER STANDBY mode.
If there is more than a 15 second unrecorded sectron between recorded sections, the tape will automatically stop and
l
rewind. To watch the next recorded section, press STOP fast
If the erasure protection hole is covered, press PLAY/x2 after the power turns on automatically. (Auto Rental Mode does
l
not work.)
The AUTO REPEAT mode has priority over the AUTO RENTAL mode. If the AUTO REPEAT mode is set to ON and the
l
video cassette reaches its end, the VCR will rewind the tape and play it back again without ejecting the tape or turning
into POWER STANDBY mode
