To play back a tape recorded on your camcorder and view it on your TV receiver, you must 
connect the camcorder to the TV receiver using either audio/video cable (not supplied) or RF 
converter unit (optional). 
You also may play back the tape recorded by your camcorder on any other VHS video 
cassette recorder. The camcorder records and plays back in VHS standard speed (SP). A tape 
recorded in long play (LP) or extra long play (EP) cannot be played back on this camcorder. 
Example 1: If your TV has "VIDEO IN" and "AUDIO IN" jacks, 
 
NOTE:
 Make sure that the "AV OUT/IN" is in the "OUT" position. 
1. Connect the audio/video cable to "AUDIO IN" and "VIDEO IN" of your TV.

When playing prerecorded tapes or tapes recorded by the recorders other than your own,

When the cassette is ejected, the tracking is reset to normal.
