About Videocassette Tapes
Types
The best thing you can do for your VCR is use the best quality tapes
available. This VCR uses VHS tapes only, which are the most common
type. Look for the VHS mark on new or prerecorded tapes you buy.
Tapes are marked either T-120 or T-160, which signifies how many
minutes of programming they can hold at standard recording speed (SP).
To get the best quality picture, record at standard speed. But if you want
to get more on a tape and are less concerned about the quality, set the
VCR for extended play (EP).

Safety Tabs Prevent Erasure
A safety tab is located on the front left edge of every videotape next to the
label. Break this tab off if you want to keep a special tape from being
erased accidentally. (Notice this tab is already removed on prerecorded
tapes you buy or rent.) Poke a screwdriver or similar tip into the space
behind the tab to break it off.
Don't worry, you can change your mind and record on this tape even after
the tab is broken off - simply cover the hole with cellophane tape.

Loading and Ejecting
When you load a videocassette into the VCR, there is only one right way!
Most tapes show you the way with a little arrow on the top side which
should go in first.
