Playback
Auto Tracking Control System
This function automatically adjusts the tracking to match the recorded tape. Auto tracking engages in
the following cases:
• When you insert the cassette and begin playback.
• When you press the CHANNEL © and © buttons
at the same time.
•When the VCR has been playing back an un 
recorded section of tape, and then reaches a
recorded tape segment.
When auto tracking engages, on the TV
screen flashes for a few seconds.
Poor Tracking Normal tracking
I NOTE >
• When a poorly recorded tape is played back, auto tracking may not operate normally. In this event, manually
adjust the tracking with the CHANNEL ©/© buttons to make any noise disappear.
Auto Head Cleaning System
When the tape is inserted or ejected, this system automatically cleans the drum and heads with a
special roller before recording or playback begins, protecting the heads and drum from dirt and
preserving beautiful picture quality.
Quick Start with Full Loading Mechanism
Your VCR has a standby function (Full Loading Mechanism) to allow immediate recording and play 
back.
After pressing the REC or PLAY/X2 button, it takes about 2 seconds until recording or playback is en 
gaged when in the standby mode.
Auto Rental Mode
(This function only works when AUTO RENTAL mode on the MODE selection screen is set to ON.)
The convenient auto rental mode lets you enjoy playback with ease. When you insert a cassette with
the erasure protection tab removed (rental videos, etc.), your VCR automatically turns on the power,
winds the tape forward to find the recorded section, and plays back the tape. When the tape reaches
the end of recorded section, the VCR automatically rewinds the tape, ejects it and turns off the power.
I NOTE >
• If there is more than a 15 second unrecorded section between recorded sections, the tape will automatically stop
and rewind. To watch the next recorded section, press the STOP button, fast forward to that section and play the
tape.
• If the erasure protection hole is covered, press the PLAY/X2 button after the power turns on automatically. (Auto
Rental Mode does not work.)
• The AUTO REPEAT mode has priority over the AUTO RENTAL mode. If the AUTO REPEAT mode is set to ON and
the video cassette reaches its end, the VCR will rewind the tape and play it back again without ejecting the tape or
turning off the power.
