SMARTCLOCK™ Once activated, this menu-
driven feature will automatically maintain the
correct time, regularly checking and updating the
time if necessary. This function will also reset the
clock after a power failure.The menu-driven time
zone feature allows selection of appropriate time
for those who live in a time zone other that that
of their CATV service provider.
ON-BOARD SHUTTLE DIAL Located on the front
panel of the VCR, the on-board shuttle dial offers
instantaneous access to fast forward and rewind
functions without the latching capability normally
associated with fast forward and rewind buttons.
AUTOMATIC CHANNEL SETUP Activating this
feature allows the VCR tuner to scan through
television frequencies, automatically storing active
broadcast channels into memory.Then, only active
channels programmed into memory are tuned, using
the channel up/down buttons on either the remote
or front panel of the VCR. 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 equipment such as a video
game or CD-i player which can be connected for
direct playthrough to the TV set.
181-CHANNEL FS TUNING The digital quartz
tuner 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 or scan tuning up and down by
remote or at the set.
CLOCK/FUNCTION DISPLAY Continuously alerts
the user to all important recording and playback
conditions, correct time, counter position, tape
speed, channel number, etc. When the VCR is
turned off, the time display automatically dims, to
make it less distracting.

the beginning of the unused portion of a videotape so
you can start a new recording without erasing other
recorded material. Record Search handles a last
minute decision to record with ease.
ON-SCREEN, REAL-TIME COUNTER WITH
TIME SEARCH Unlike the 0000 to 9999 tape
counters found in standard VCRs, this unit
incorporates a linear, real-time counter which
shows elapsed recording and/or playback time in
hours, minutes, and seconds. Now you can
advance or return to selected tape segments in any
time increment you desire.

faster and easier to find the desired portion of a tape.
