The VCR displays a blue screen on the TV
when you select the VCR mode, play unre-
corded portions of a tape, or when you tune to
a weak TV station. The blue screen also ap-
pears if you set the VCR to the audio/video
mode when the 

jacks are not

receiving any signals.

Note: You cannot record the blue screen on a
tape in the VCR.

pear.

While a tape is stopped, press

vance the tape quickly or
