After operating the tracking manually, eject the tape and re-insert it to reactivate auto tracking. Rewinding the Tape When you are done watching a video, you can rewind the tape automatically or manually. If you press POWER while the tape is rewinding, the power will shut off automatically after the tape has completely rewound. Manual Rewind Press STOP and then REW. The VCR rewinds the tape all the way to the beginning, then stops. Press STOP/EJECT on the VCR to release the tape. Movie Return If your videocassette has the safety tab removed and you set the MOVIE RETURN function to ON during initial setup, the VCR will stop and automatically rewind the videocassette, eject it, and turn off the power when it reaches the end of the tape or a blank section of tape which lasts for more than 30 seconds. This function works only in PLAYBACK mode, not in RECORDING mode. Special Playback Effects Part of the fun of video watching is being able to stop the action and take a closer look or repeat a favorite scene. Using the SHUTTLE dial on the VCR: Press PLAY and turn the dial to the far right or left to search forward and backward. Searching with the Time Counter During playback (and recording), a counter keeps track of how many hours, minutes, and seconds the tape has run. When you first start playback, the counter shows briefly in the TV screen's upper right corner. When you want to check the counter during playback, there are several ways to do it. Pressing DISPLAY on the remote control will cycle you through the three options. Press DISPLAY just once to see the counter, mode, time, and date on the screen for 5 seconds. Before the 5 seconds are up, press DISPLAY a second time to see just the counter. Press DISPLAY a third time to see the counter on the VCR display as well. ("M" will display below the counter on the TV screen. ) Press DISPLAY a fourth time to end the on-screen display. The linear time counter operates only if there is something recorded on the tape. The counter changes to 0:00:00 when the tape is ejected. Marking with the Time Counter If there is one part of the video that you want to return to, you can set the time counter to memorize that spot.
