Checking the tape threading

To ensure correct operation, the VCR checks
automatically the tape threading whenever you insert a
tape, and it takes about 5 seconds. If an error is
detected, the VCR ejects the tape.
During this period, tape operation buttons such as ·
PLAY, r REC, FF ), REW 0, SEARCH # and
SEARCH 3 do not function.
If you consider it unnecessary to check the tape
threading, you can cancel it in the SET UP menu.
