shielding and careful placement
of high-grade video sections
significantly reduce magnetic,
digital, and power supply noise.

Sound
• Stereo Front-Fired
Speaker System
Front-fired frequency drivers
provide excellent imaging while

the annoying “blast” of sound
during commercial breaks.
Additionally, soft sounds
are amplified, maintaining
a constant volume level.

sound from MTS (Multichannel
Television Sound) stereo TV
broadcasts, where available.
• Second Audio

The TruFlat™Tube Difference
TruFlat models reduce the reflected image field by greater than 60% compared
with standard tubes, while allowing a totally visible screen, even when viewed
off-axis. This means placing the television in your home just became easier.
Viewers sitting off-angle now see less reflection, less glare, and all viewers have
a wider viewing angle allowing the entire screen to be seen.
Using specialized phosphors and improved circuitry, detail clarity with any TruFlat
model, particularly with DVD images, adds on-screen realism. Combined with
RCA’s new Cross-Bridge Unified Chassis designs, modern cabinets, and the latest
sound enhancement systems, TruFlat technology will amaze.
TruFlat™tube design reduces
peripheral screen reflections
by over 60%.
The TruFlat™design offers a
wider effective viewing area
from any angle.
TruFlat™Engineering Performance
RCA engineers developed an extensive
quality control and evaluation program
for the new TruFlat models. Using RCA
worldwide research and development
personnel, a new comprehensive test
program was developed for each
TruFlat model. As further support for
the quality, a limited one year parts
and labor warranty* is provided with
all TruFlat models, 20" and larger.

• EnergySaver
Saves energy by automatically
turning off the VCR when it is
not being used. Also helps
prevent missing timer recordings
due to the VCR being left on.
• Bit-Mapped
On-Screen Menus
On-screen displays make it easy
to adjust most picture, sound,
and convenience features from
either the remote control or the
TV front panel buttons.
• Caption Vision Closed
Caption Capability2
Assists the hearing impaired,
helps children learn to read,
and aids in the teaching of
English as a second language.
Built-in Closed Caption Decoder
displays the audio portion of
a program as text on the TV
screen (when program is aired
with the encoded signal).
• Programmable
Timer System
Convenient scheduling system
can be used in a variety of ways:
– Sleep Timer
Automatically turns off the
TV after a preset time period —
for those times when you
drift off to sleep in front of
the television.
– Alarm Timer
Wake up to your favorite
morning show or turn on
your television automatically
to catch your favorite program.
• Auto Clock Set3
The Auto Clock Set3circuitry
reads the XDS broadcast signal
containing time of day and
date information, automatically
setting the clock during initial
setup as well as after most
power interruptions.
Convenience
• 6-Head System
Four video recording and pick-up
heads on a single head drum
provide improved special effect
performance. With the new SFX
design, you can visually pause
on the tape at any speed, and
slow-motion effects are clearer
and more jitter-free. Two
additional AFM audio heads
allow Stereo Hi-Fi Recording
and playback. The combination
of six heads allows full theatre
video and audio, and allows
full stereo performance copying
from all high-level consumer
and professional camcorders.
Using a T-160 tape, up to eight
hours of stereophonic audio
can be recorded for extended
playback, or six hours with any
standard T-120 VHS tape.
• 5-Event/1-Month Timer
The built-in timer memory can
be preset up to one month in
advance to record as many as five
different programs automatically.
• Low-Noise Pre-Amplifier
100% of all incoming and
outgoing audio and video must
travel through pre-amplifiers. A
poor design can cut performance
significantly, even if high-quality
camcorders and DVD equipment
are connected. Stressing
compatibility and performance,
RCA engineering design assures
both audio and video noise are
is minimized. With distortion
reduced, pre-recorded movies
sound richer, clearer and more
distinctive. Visually all movies,
including home movies copied
from high-quality camcorder
tapes, play back with added
performance and quality.
• Quick-Start Mechanism
As soon as a tape is loaded
into this VCR, it starts to play.
• Simplified On-Screen
Programming
With the RCA remote control
and on-screen displays, all timer
programming can be done from
the convenience of your chair.
On-screen instructions guide
the viewer through each
programming sequence.
• Auto Repeat
Automatically rewinds at the
end of the tape and then
begins replay.
• Real-Time Counter
Displays exactly how long the
tape has played or recorded to
make locating segments easier.
• Auto Power On, Auto Play,
Auto Rewind
Simply inserting a cassette
in the VCR turns it on (Auto
Power On). When a prerecorded
cassette is inserted in the VCR,
it automatically starts to play
(Auto Play). When the end of
the tape is reached, Auto Rewind
automatically rewinds the tape.
• Quality Slow Motion
• Digital Auto Tracking Plus
Combines the best performance
of an automatic digital tracking
scan system, which automatically
“locks” on the best signal, with
the added convenience of
manual override. Manual
up/down tracking is sometimes
preferred when rental tapes have
been damaged or recorded on
older recorders with tracking out
of adjustment.
• One Touch Recording (OTR)
Simplifies the recording of a
TV show in progress. One
button begins recording and
sets the program length, so
that the VCR records and
switches off automatically.
