Tape Eject
A tape can be ejected with the VCR power on or off (but the
VCR must be plugged in).
If a timer recording is programmed, the TIMER and Cassette-
Inside lights will flash on the VCR’s display panel when you eject a

Automatic Tracking Adjustment
The VCR continually adjusts tracking to give you the best possible
picture quality. With some recordings, however, you may get a
better picture by adjusting the tracking manually (see below).
Manual Tracking Adjustment
• Press the TRACKING Up/Down buttons to adjust tracking manually
during normal and slow motion playback.
• Press the CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR to remove jitter
in a still picture. The CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the remote
control will not remove jitter in a still picture.
• You can return to Automatic Tracking Adjustment by pressing the
CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR at the same time.
• The CHANNEL Up/Down buttons on the VCR also adjust tracking
during normal tape playback.
• The VCR returns to Automatic Tracking Adjustment whenever a tape
is inserted.
