driven feature will automatically maintain the correct time, regularly checking and updating the time if necessary. This function will also reset the clock after a power failure.The menu-driven time zone feature allows selection of appropriate time for those who live in a time zone other that that of their CATV service provider.

panel of the VCR, the on-board shuttle dial offers instantaneous access to fast forward and rewind functions without the latching capability normally associated with fast forward and rewind buttons.

AUTOMATIC CHANNEL SETUP Activating this

feature allows the VCR tuner to scan through television frequencies, automatically storing active broadcast channels into memory.Then, only active channels programmed into memory are tuned, using the channel up/down buttons on either the remote or front panel of the VCR. Automatic channel preset can be repeated whenever desired, should new channels become available. Channels can be manually added or deleted.

FRONT PANEL AUDIO/VIDEO INPUTS Provide

added convenience to equipment such as a video game or CD-i player which can be connected for direct playthrough to the TV set.

181-CHANNEL FS TUNING The digital quartz

tuner is capable of receiving up to 181 channels, including UHF, VHF, and 113 cable channels, without the inconvenience and expense of a cable company decoder/converter (on non-scrambled cable systems). Channel tuning is by random access with the remote control transmitter or scan tuning up and down by remote or at the set.

CLOCK/FUNCTION DISPLAY Continuously alerts

the user to all important recording and playback conditions, correct time, counter position, tape speed, channel number, etc. When the VCR is turned off, the time display automatically dims, to make it less distracting.
