Using the Shuttle Control on the remote control
The shuttle feature lets you control all the playback functions - play,
pause, slow motion, double speed, and search - using one convenient
dial.
The button in the center lets you choose PLAY or PAUSE mode. As you
turn the dial you get different playback speeds and forward or reverse
motion. Try using the shuttle to explore backwards and forwards through
your next video.
If noise bars appear on the TV screen during SLOW/STILL mode, first set
the VCR to SLOW mode and then press the 1 or 4 button on the remote
control to minimize the noise bars. The noise bars are then eliminated
automatically in the STILL mode.
It you turn the dial in the STOP mode, you can fast forward or rewind the
tape. The tape continues to be wound even after you release the dial.

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 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.
