The Play Timer function allows you to control the amount of time your child watches a video. For
example, let’s say you want your child to watch a cartoon for 90 minutes.

Press the PLAY TIMER SET UP button for more than five seconds.

The set up screen appears on your TV.

Press the M (fast forward) or m (rewind) buttons to select 90
minutes.

The time will change in thirty minute increments.  If you continue to
press either the M (fast forward) or m (rewind) button, the playing
time will scroll as follows:
OFF y 30 y 60 y 90 y 120 y 150 y 180 y OFF

After you select the playing time, press the PLAY TIMER SET UP button.

The ON/OFF row of the 

 (repeat) option is highlighted.

Press the M (fast forward) or  m (rewind) button to set the repeat function ON or OFF.
If you select ON and the tape reaches the end before the timer is up, it will automatically rewind
and play the tape from the beginning.

Press the PLAY TIMER SET UP button again.

The set up screen will disappear and the timer will start. Follow the steps above to start
watching a video.

When your child is watching a video, all of the buttons (except the z REC (record) button) will
work. After the set playing time has elapsed, the power will turn off and all of the buttons will be
locked for one hour. If you press a button while the VCR is locked, the light on the POWER I/1
button will flash for five seconds.

Press the PLAY TIMER SET UP button once. The remaining time will appear on your TV screen.
When five minutes are left, the remaining time will automatically appear on your TV screen for 30
seconds.

Press the PLAY TIMER SET UP button for more than five seconds. When the set up screen appears
on your TV, use the M (fast forward) or m (rewind) buttons to set the timer to OFF.

• As soon as you complete step 5 above, the timer will start to run even if you turn off the VCR. This means that the VCR

may enter the lock mode while the power is off, or that when you turn the VCR back on, the Play Timer will return to
the last setting you made. Follow the explanations above to change or cancel the Play Timer.

• The repeat function will rewind the tape no more than five times, regardless of the tape length or timer setting.

You can lock the cassette door to prevent your child from inserting or ejecting
cassette tapes. To lock the door, press down the PUSH button and move the
DOOR LOCK slide to the left until it clicks in place.
To unlock the door, press down the PUSH button and move the DOOR LOCK
slide to the right.

You can use this VCR to record images input through the LINE IN jacks. For example, let’s say you
want to record images of your child that you took with your video camera.

Press the SP/EP button to set the tape speed.

EP (Extended Play) provides recording time three times as long as SP (Standard Play).
However, SP produces better picture and audio quality.

Connect your video camera’s LINE OUT jacks to the LINE IN jacks on the back of this
VCR, and insert a blank tape with its safety tab intact into this VCR. (If you are recording
a program on your TV, be sure to disconnect the VCR’s LINE OUT jacks from your TV’s
LINE IN jack and set the TV’s TV/VIDEO button to TV.)

Press the z REC (record) button on this VCR.

Start playing the tape in your video camera.
The REC mark and tape speed (EP or SP) appear on your TV screen. To stop recording,
press x STOP.

• The z REC button will not function when the Play Timer is activated. Cancel the Play Timer before you make a

recording.

Turn on your TV
and press your TV’s
TV/VIDEO* button

The name of this button may be different
on your TV.

X PAUSE button

Press this button to momentarily stop the tape.

Insert two size AA (R6) batteries by
matching the + and – on the batteries
to the diagram inside the battery
compartment.
Insert the negative (–) end first, then
push in and down until the positive
(+) end clicks into place.

A playful animation will appear whenever you
rewind, fast forward, or insert a tape.

1

Using the supplied audio/video cable, connect one of the yellow plugs to VIDEO of LINE OUT on
this VCR, and the other yellow plug to VIDEO of LINE IN on your TV.

2

Connect both of the red and white plugs, in any order, to the black AUDIO LINE OUT jacks on this
VCR, and the other ends to the AUDIO LINE IN jacks on your TV. If your TV is monaural (only one
AUDIO LINE IN jack), you only need to use one of the red or white plugs. Just be sure to connect
the same color plug to both the VCR and your TV.

3

Plug in the power cord to an AC outlet.

• If your TV only has an RF jack (antenna jack), you need to use an RF modulator (not supplied) to connect this VCR.

Refer to your modulator’s instruction manual for further details.

When you want to use this VCR to make a recording, connect
LINE IN on this VCR to LINE OUT of your other video source
(such as a video camera, TV, or another video deck) using an
audio/video cable (not supplied). If your other video source
has a stereo LINE OUT (three jacks), use the audio/video
cable VMC-910MS (sold separately). Play the original tape on
the other video source and use this VCR to make the
recording. See “  Recording and Tape Speed Buttons” on the reverse for more information.

• If you connect your TV’s LINE OUT jacks to the LINE IN jacks, be sure to disconnect the VCR’s LINE OUT jacks

from your TV’s LINE IN jacks.

Follow the steps below to connect your TV to the VCR.
