PERATION

To insert a video tape:

Hold the video tape window-
side up, with the arrow
pointing away from you. 

Don’t try to insert a tape
upside down or backwards.

Use only video tapes labeled
“VHS.” PAL and S-VHS video
tapes are not compatible
with this unit. Choose brand
name, high quality tapes for
best results.

Gently push the tape through
the compartment door until
you feel the VCR pull it in. 

The TV/VCR loads the tape
automatically.

If the power is off when you
insert a tape, the TV/VCR
turns on automatically.

If the safety tab of your video
tape has been removed, the
tape begins to play
automatically. 

✔ For more information on the

safety tab, see page 40.

To eject a video cassette tape:

Press STOP to stop playing
the tape.

✔ When you’re finished playing a

video tape, rewind it and
remove it from the TV/VCR to
protect it from wear and tear.

Press STOP/EJECT on the
TV/VCR to eject the tape.

Remove the tape and turn off
the TV/VCR.

Insert the video tape.

If the tape doesn’t begin to
play automatically, press
PLAY.

Then, if necessary, the
TV/VCR will automatically
adjust the tape’s tracking.

✔ For information on automatic

tracking, see page 25.

✔ For information on the time

counter, see page 25. 

While a tape is playing, press
P./STILL to pause the tape.

There may be vertical jitter or
horizontal streaks on the
screen while a tape is
paused. You can try to
eliminate these problems by
pressing the TRK + and TRK –
buttons on the remote
control. 

✔ For information on automatic

tracking, see page 25.

After five minutes in pause,
