START PLAYBACK
Press PLAY. �NT� appears on the display panel. � Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction on the part of either the video recorder or the TV. � The picture may roll up and down. This can be corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not have a V-HOLD control.) � The counter and elapsed tape time readings will be incorrect. � During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of colour. � Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom portions of superimposed displays may be cut off during NTSC playback.
