 Select the start point of the section of the program that you want to copy. You can 

locate the beginning of the program by using the shuttle dial or the PLAY, REWIND, or 
FAST FORWARD controls. 

 When you have located the start point of your edit press the EDIT button on the 

remote. The current time counter is registered. 

 Locate the end point of your edit using the shuttle dial or remote control functions 

then press EDIT on the remote control. The current time counter is registered and you 
now have the start and end points for your edit. 

 Press the EDIT button one more time; the program menu will disappear from the 

screen and EXECUTE will flash. The VCR will automatically search to find a point about 
ten seconds before the beginning of the program section that you want to copy. 

 The VCR will then enter the "play" mode. When the "START" point is reached the 

word EXECUTE will disappear on the screen to show that your program segment is 
being copied. 

Some models of VCR will switch to the "STOP" mode if they are left in the 
RECORD/PAUSE mode for more than five minutes. It is a good idea to not leave your 
recording deck in RECORD/PAUSE for more than five minutes so that this will not 
happen. 

Correcting an Error in Programming 

 Press the CLEAR button on the remote control 
 Enter the correct programming information 

When editing starts, the playback VCR will start playing at a point slightly before the 
start of the program, this is normal. It is a good idea to have something recorded before 
the starting point of the edit because the edit may operate incorrectly if there is an 
unrecorded section before the start point.
