The table above indicates the colour television system you should use, as well as the setting for each switch, when using your VCR to record signals in

each broadcasting system, or to play back tapes from each of the different colour systems. For example, when using a colour TV which uses a PAL- B/G system, if you select the PAL-B/G mode on your VCR (refer to table ~ for the setting of each switch), you will be able to record PAL-B/G broadcasts, and also play back PAL tapes.

"~" indicates that recording and playback are not possible unless you connect your TV to the VCR with the AUDIO IN/OUT and VIDEO IN/OUT terminals. Consequently, this mark indicates that you can only use a TV that is equipped with AUDIO IN/OUT and VIDEO IN/OUT terminals.

• "0" indicates that recording and playback are possible when you connect your TV to the VCR using either the AUDIO IN/OUT and VIDEO IN/OUT terminals or the RF OUT terminal.

• When recording a French SECAM-L broadcast, and when playing back a SECAM tape using a SECAM-L TV, connect your TV using the AUDIO

IN/OUT and VIDEO IN/OUT terminals.

·"*" indicates that a SECAM signal is being recorded using the MESECAM

system.

 

• The following are definitions of each kind of tape:

• PALtapes:

Commercially marketed PAL tapes, and tapes on which PAL-

 

B/G, PAL-I, PAL-D/K (DIRT) broadcasts have been recorded.

• SECAM tapes:

Commercially marketed SECAM tapes (including those

 

marketed in France), and tapes on which SECAM-B/G,

SECAM-D/K, K1 (DIRT), and SECAM-L broadcasts have been recorded in the SECAM system.

• MESECAM tapes: Tapes on which SECAM-B/G, SECAM-D/K, and K1 (DIRT)

 

broadcasts have been recorded In the MESECAM system.

• NTSCtapes:

Commercially marketed NTSC tapes and tapes on which

 

NTSC-M broadcasts have beenrecorded.

• The playback image wiil shrink somewhat at thetop and bottom. This does notindicate a problem with either theTV or the VCR.

BROADCAST SYSTEMS/BEFORE USING YOUR VCR

• If the television is not equipped with a V-HOLD control knob, the picture may roil, making it unviewable. However, if the TV is equipped with a V-HOLD knob, then it is possible to stopthe rolling by adjusting theknob, making the picture viewable.

RF indicates that the TV is connected to the VCR using the RF OUT terminal. AV indicatesthatthe TV is connected to the VCR using the AUDIO IN/OUT and VIDEO IN/OUT terminals.

When you play back a pooriy recorded tape, set the COLOUR MODE switch to "NTSC", "PAL", or "SECAM" depending on the coiour system of the tape (do not set it to "AUTO" ). In the case of a MESECAM tape, set it to "SECAM".

Using your VCR Auto System during Playback and Recording

o Set the NTSC MODE switch on the rear of the VCR either to "3.58", "4.43" or "NTSC -7 PAL CTV" to match the TV being used.

lj When a broadcast system is SECAM, set the SECAM MODE switch on the rear of the VCR to SECAM if you want to record it in the SECAM system. If you want to record in the MESECAM system, set to MESECAM. Also, set the SECAM MODE switch to MESECAM if the tape being played back is recorded in MESECAM. Set the SECAM MODE switch to SECAM if the tape being played back is recorded in the SECAM system.

NOTE:

If you make a mistake in setting the position of the SECAM MODE switch, the tape which you recorded will not play back in colour when you play it back using another SECAM only or MESECAM only system .

@After completing 0 and lj, set the COLOUR MODE switch to the AUTO position, and the VCR will automatically discriminate between "PAL", "NTSC" and "SECAM".
