ªTapes
≥You can use tapes with the VHS and S-VHS marks, but this unit is unable to make full use of the characteristics of S-VHS tapes.
≥Break the tape’s tab to prevent accidental erasure. Cover the hole with a
double layer of adhesive tape when you want to use the tape for recording again.
Tab
ªS-VHS Quasi Playback (SQPB)
It is possible to play back tapes recorded in the S-VHS system. ≥Some picture noise may occur depending on the type of tape
used.
≥It is not possible to fully obtain the high resolution that S-VHS is capable of.
It is not possible to record in the S-VHS system with this unit.
ªDirt on the video heads
If the video heads get dirty, pictures will not be recorded or played back clearly. (See the following conditions.)
Normal picture |
Small amount of dirt Large amount of dirt |
|||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this happens, insert and eject a cassette 5–10 times successively to remove the dirt from the video heads.
If the problem still persists after performing above, contact a service personnel.
Head cleaning by service agents is not covered by warranty.
Heads mainly become dirty because of scratched or dirty tapes, use of the unit under high temperature and humidity or under the dust and other reasons.
Never use tapes on which liquids have been spilt or those that are extremely damaged since these will cause not only the heads to become dirty, but also the unit malfunction.

COMPONENT VIDEO terminal (progressive out)
These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide a clearer picture than the S VIDEO terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the colour difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colours.
≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the TV or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same colour.

S VIDEO terminal
The S VIDEO terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance
(Y) signals (Actual results depend on the TV). ≥Connect to a different terminal group (e.g.
“VIDEO 2”) than that you used for the connection through this unit’s VHS/DVD OUT terminal. Picture from the VHS section will not appear when you use the same group input terminal connections because the S Video terminal input takes precedence.
≥These connections are for the DVD section only.
Carry out the Basic Connections described above to view video from the VHS section.
≥When making this connection, ensure that you connect the audio cables (not supplied) to the corresponding audio input terminals on the TV.
≥You may need to change the video-input mode on the TV to view video from the VHS and DVD sections. Read your TV’s operating instructions for details.
