NTSC Tape Play Back on PAL TV
When you play back an NTSC tape on your Product, it is possible to use a PAL or multi-system compatible TV.
However, please note the following:
• The picture will shrink vertically to some degree, as shown in the diagram,
but this does not indicate a malfunction in your TV or Product.
• If your TV does not have a V-HOLD control, the picture may roll and be
unwatchable. However, if you use a TV with a V-HOLD control, you can
stop the rolling by adjusting the V-HOLD control and watch the picture.
• Horizontal noise bars may appear on the screen during special effect
playback (video search, still, slow, frame advance, and double speed playback), possibly accompanied by
discolouring.
• Although NTSC tapes can be played back into a PAL TV, those tapes cannot be dubbed by a PAL system
VCR connected to the AUDIO OUT and VIDEO OUT terminals of this product. Tapes recorded in this way
cannot be played back on PAL system VCRs.
• Set the Colour mode to AUTO or NTSC, and set the NTSC mode to PAL TV.
Full Auto Playback
(This function only works when AUTO RENTAL mode on the MODE selection screen is set to “OFF”.)
Full Auto Playback lets you enjoy playback with ease. When you insert a cassette with the erasure protection
tab removed, your Product automatically turns on the power and plays back the tape. When the tape reaches
its end, the Product automatically rewinds the tape, ejects it and turns off the power. If a DVD is being played
back, the power will not turn off.
• If the erasure protection hole is covered, press ûPLAY after the power turns on automatically.
Auto Head Cleaning System
When the tape is inserted or ejected, this system automatically cleans the drum and heads with a special roller
before recording or playback begins, protecting the heads and drum from dirt and preserving beautiful picture
quality.
Auto Tracking Control System
This function automatically adjusts the tracking to match the recorded tape.
Auto tracking engages in the following cases:
• When you insert the cassette and begin playback.
• When you press CH ' / " at the same time.
• When the Product has been playing back an unrecorded section of tape,
Poor Tracking Normal tracking
and then reaches a recorded tape segment.
When auto tracking engages, “
||

• When a poorly recorded tape is played back, auto tracking may not operate normally. In this event, manually adjust
the tracking with CH ' / " to make any noise disappear.
Quick Start with Full Loading Mechanism
Your Product has a standby function (Full Loading Mechanism) to allow immediate recording and playback.

AUTO RENTAL

rewind the tape forward to find the recorded section, and plays back
the tape. When the tape reaches the end of recorded section, the

Recording NICAM/IGR Multiplex Broadcasts
This Product is capable of receiving NICAM multiplex broadcasts (PAL-I, B/G, D/K) and IGR multiplex broad-
casts (PAL-
B/G, D/K). NICAM multiplex broadcasts will be recorded in stereo/bilingual when the NICAM setting on the
OSD’s MODE is set to AUTO. For information on how to carry out NICAM setting (See “Mode Selection” on page 25).
IGR multiplex broadcasts will be recorded on stereo/bilingual. (The AUTO/OFF setting will not function.) This Product
automatically records on two types of audio track.
Hi-Fi track:
Special rotary heads will be used to record an audio signal deep in the video track in Hi-Fi. Multiplex broad-
casts fall into “stereo” and “bilingual” broadcasts and they will be automatically recorded on their respective
tracks.
Normal track:
Conventional analogue audio is always recorded on the normal track (mono sound) regardless of whether your
Product is receiving a multiplex broadcasts or not.

• There are tapes, though small in number, which have a normal track that has been divided into two tracks. On such
tapes, stereo as well as bilingual audio are recorded on the normal track. If such a tape is played back on your
Product, the tape’s stereo sound will be reproduced in monaural and its bilingual in both languages combined.
• When a cassette tape on which a NICAM multiplex broadcast has been recorded in stereo or bilingual mode is played
back by a VCR that is not a Hi-Fi VCR, only the sound on the normal track will be reproduced.
• When you select “OFF” for NICAM in the OSD MODE, the stereo and bilingual audio of a NICAM multiplex broadcast
will be fixed to the normal sound.
