A quick way to access specific program segments is with the index search feature. This lets you move through a
tape that has several recordings on it by searching for the INDEX "mark". This function only works with recordings
that have been set up with indexing. You create an INDEX mark (VISS signal) every time you pres the REC or
REC/IRT button while recording.

INDEX
• The tape rewinds or fast forwards until an index mark is detected. During this search, the word INDEX is
displayed at the top left corner of the screen.
• When the VCR finds an index mark, it plays 15 seconds of the program that begins at that spot.
3 If this is the program you were looking for, press the PLAY button for normal playback.
• To stop the index search before an index mark is reached, press the STOP button.
Note:
If there are no index marks on the tape, the VCR will just rewind to the beginning or fast forward to the end.
