Searching for a Specific Sequence

Each time you record a cassette on this VCR, an

“index” is automatically marked on the tape when

recording starts.

The Search function allows you to fast-forward or

rewind to a specific index and start playback from that

point. Depending on the direction selected, the indexes

are numbered as follows:

This VCR uses a standard indexing system (VISS).
As a result, it will recognize any indexes marked
by other VCRs using the same system and vice
versa.
