To Quickly Find the Beginning of a
Desired Programme
(VISSuVHS Index Search System)
This VCR automatically records special index signals on the
tape every time a recording is started. The Index search
function makes use of these index signals to let you find the
beginning of a desired programme quickly and easily.

REC/OTR button c or DIRECT TV REC button 6.
≥ When a timer recording starts.
≥ When you press the REC button J on the remote control
during recording.
Conditions for correct operation of the Index search function:
≥ The VCR must be in the stop mode or in the playback
mode.
≥ Each programme recorded on the tape must be at least
5 minutes long.
Preparations
≥ Display the VCR picture on the TV.
≥ Insert a recorded video cassette.
As soon as the cassette is inserted, the Cassette Number
Check starts. Wait a few moments until it is completed.

Operation
1 Press the INDEX button K (that corresponds to the
direction from the current tape position in which the
desired programme is located on the tape) to start the
index search. For example,
if you want to search for the
2nd recorded programme in
forward direction, press the INDEX L button K twice.

the displayed figure down to 1.
