Playing back the NTSC tape
Tapes recorded in the NTSC color system can be played
back on this VCR.

the picture on a PAL color system TV.
• Depending on the tape, the playback picture shrinks
vertically to some degree.
• Depending on the tape, the playback picture may scroll
vertically on the screen. If your TV has a V-HOLD control,
adjust for a stable picture. If not, you cannot stop scrolling.
• Depending on the tape, noise lines may appear or color may
fade during still.
• Noise lines may appear or color may fade during forward
and reverse searches.
• Although NTSC tapes can be played back on a PAL TV,
these tapes cannot be dubbed by a PAL system VCR.
• Depending on the tape, the quality of the playback picture
and sound are not clear and the auto tracking may not be
performed properly.
