PLAYBACK
NORMAL PLAYBACK

STILL PICTURE
You can view a still picture on the TV screen during playback (the Still mode). Hit [PAUSE/STILL F] during playback. Only tapes recorded in the SLP mode will show the least amount of lines. Hit [PLAY/K] to return to playback. K NOTES: � Usually there will be video �noise� lines (black and white streaks or dots) on the screen. This is normal. If the tape was originally recorded in SP or LP mode, the still picture will be black and white in addition to the �noise� lines. This is not a fault of the machine, but is a byproduct of the technology involved in producing a unit with 2 video heads. If the unit is left in the Pause mode for more than 5 minutes, the unit will automatically switch to the stop mode.
