Checking your model name

Getting Started

The instructions in this manual are for the 4 models: SLV-SE70EN, SE70EG, SX70EN, and SE50EG. Check your model number by looking at the rear panel of your VCR. The SLV-SE70EN is the model used for illustration purposes. Any difference in operation is clearly indicated in the text, for example, “SLV-SE50EG only.”

Step 2
