Handling a Video Cassette

into the VCR.

Setting the S-VHS switch

You can use S-VHS or VHS video cassettes. When
recording on S-VHS tape using S-VHS format, set the
S-VHS switch to ON (S-VHS indication lights up in
the display window).
When recording on S-VHS tape using VHS format, set
the switch to OFF.

Inserting a Video Cassette

Insert the cassette into the cassette compartment by
slowly pressing its center with the arrow on the top.
When the cassette is inserted, the VCR automatically
turns on and the q indicator lights in the display
window.
If you insert the cassette without its safety tab and are
going to start recording, the VCR ejects the cassette
automatically.
