Displaying current tape position
The display shows the tape position in hours, minutes and seconds. In addition, by pressing OK you can show the present tape position on the TV screen. The following information is displayed on the screen: e.g.: 0:02:45 Shows the tape position in hours, minutes and seconds. Moving/blinking arrow: This indicates the current tape position. The arrow moves in a line from left (tape start) to right (tape end). 'REMAIN 0:06': will show the actual amount of playing/recording time left on the tape in hours and minutes. When you play an NTSC cassette, the video recorder will not show 'REMAIN0:06'.

How can I set the counter to '0:00:00'? You can set the counter to '0:00:00' using CLEAR (CL) . When you put a cassette in the machine, the counter will automatically reset to 0:00:00'. a The counter does not move b This occurs when there are no recordings on a portion of a tape. Therefore, the video recorder cannot receive any information from the tape. This is not a fault in your machine. a The display/the screen shows '-0:01:20' b If you rewind a cassette from the tape position '0:00:00', the counter will show for instance, '-0:01:20' (the cassette will be rewound to 1 minute and 20 seconds before '0:00:00'). a ' : ' is displayed in the 'REMAIN' counter b This counter will automatically recognise the length of the tape. In addition, when you put in a cassette the video recorder must first calculate the time played. Therefore, '-:--' appears first and only after the tape has been running for a few seconds will the correct playing time be shown.
