necessary. This function will also reset the clock
after a power outage.
8-Event/1 Year Smart
Programming Permits pre-programming VCR
for unattended recording of up to eight separate
programs over a full 365-day period. No manual
setting, adjusting, or programming of the
calendar function is required.
Automatic Channel Setup Activating
this feature allows the VCR tuner to scan
through television frequencies, automatically
storing every active broadcasting channel into
memory. Subsequent scanning of TV channels
through the VCR tuner will show only those
active channels programmed into memory.
Automatic channel preset can be repeated
whenever desired, should new channels become
available. Channels can be manually added
or deleted.
Front Panel Audio/Video Inputs
Provide added convenience to the user when
recording tapes directly from a camcorder to the
VCR. In addition, accessory video equipment such
as a video game or CD-i player can be
connected for direct playthrough to the TV set.
Auto Head Cleaner Gently, automatically
cleans the video head each time a tape is
inserted or removed, to maintain optimum
picture performance during both recording
and playback.
Digital Auto Tracking System When
tape playback begins, this feature automatically
seeks the optimum tracking position in the
tracking range, and the optimum audio signal
tracking position for for clearest picture and
sound from videotapes. Controls are provided on
the remote transmitter to give the user manual
control should tracking adjustments be necessary.

motion viewing of tapes recorded at SP or SLP
speeds, in both forward and reverse. Slow motion
speed can be varied from 1/5th to 1/60th
normal speed in either direction.
181-Channel FS Tuning The Digital
Quartz tuner in the Magnavox VCR is capable of
receiving up to 181 channels, including UHF, VHF,
and 113 cable channels, without the
inconvenience and expense of a cable company
decoder/converter on non-scrambled cable
systems. Channel tuning is by random access
with the remote control transmitter, with
instantaneous tuning of any available channel, or
scan tuning up and down by remote or at
the set.
Timer/Programmer Backup System
Retains timer programming information for up to
three full minutes in the event of momentary
power interruptions.
Remote Control On-Screen Menu
Programming Allows VCR programming by
remote control for unattended recording, with
programming instructions on-screen for visual
verification. On-screen menus lead the user
through normal, daily, or weekly programming by
program number, channel to be recorded, start
and stop times, speed, and date of recording by
day, month, and year. Pushing the “clear” button
allows user to go back and reprogram over
mistakes, and pushing the “menu” button at the
end of programming verifies that instructions are
locked into memory.
Quick Start Mechanism Switches the
tape mechanism from Stop to Play in only one
second, instead of the approximately 5 1/4
seconds of older models.
Channel Search When set in the “tuner”
mode with the Channel Search button on the
remote transmitter pressed, the tuner will
automatically begin scanning through all channels
programmed into memory, showing the
programming on each channel briefly. When the
desired channel is reached, a second touch of
the button stops the Search operation. If the
scan is not stopped, the tuner will go through
all available channels, then return to the channel
originally tuned and stop.
Clock/Function Display Continuously
alerts the user to all important recording and
playback conditions, correct time, counter
position, tape speed, channel number, etc. When

automatically dims, to make it less distracting.
