SLV-M11HF ©1999 by Sony Corporation WARNING To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. CAUTION To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized AC plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure. Precautions Safety • Operate the unit only on 120 V AC, 60 Hz. • If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. • This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off. • Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by the cord. • One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the purpose of safety and will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your Sony dealer. Installing • Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup. • Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots. Introduction • Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock. • Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only. • Keep the unit and cassettes away from equipment with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens or large loudspeakers. • Do not place heavy objects on the unit. • If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside the VCR and cause damage to the video head and tape. When you first install the unit, or when you move it from a cold to a warm location, wait for about three hours before operating the unit.

Additional Operations 31 Adjusting the picture Adjusting the tracking Although the VCR automatically adjusts the tracking when playing a tape (the indicator flashes in the display window, then goes off), distortion may occur if the tape was recorded in poor condition. In this case, manually adjust the tracking. Press the TRACKING +/– buttons to display the tracking meter. The distortion should disappear as you press one of the two buttons (the indicator lights up). To resume automatic tracking adjustment, eject the tape and reinsert it. NORMAL TRACKING Tracking meter About the Reality Regenerator function The Reality Regenerator function automatically restores the picture to its original quality during playback. To use the Reality Regenerator function, press REALITY REGENERATOR. The REALITY REGENERATOR indicator lights up. To turn it off, press REALITY REGENERATOR. The REALITY REGENERATOR indicator goes off. 32 Additional Operations REALITY REGENERATOR REALITY REGENERATOR indicator About the Adaptive Picture Control (APC) function The Adaptive Picture Control (APC) function automatically improves recording and playback quality by adjusting the VCR to the condition of the video heads and tape. To maintain better picture quality, we recommend that you set APC to ON in the ADVANCED OPTIONS menu (with the APC indicator in the display window lit). For details, see page 35. APC playback The APC function automatically works on all types of tapes, including rental tapes and tapes that were not recorded with APC. APC recording Whenever you insert a tape and first start recording, the VCR adjusts to the tape using the APC function (the APC indicator flashes rapidly). This adjustment is retained until the tape is ejected. Notes • The automatic tracking adjustment cannot be guaranteed to work with tapes recorded in the LP mode on other VCRs. • The APC function does not work if the tape speed is automatically changed from the SP to EP mode during a timer recording when AUTO TAPE SPEED is set to ON in the ADVANCED OPTIONS menu, unless the tape has been recorded in the EP mode with the APC function. • There is a delay of about ten seconds before the VCR actually starts recording while the VCR analyzes the tape. To avoid the delay, first set the VCR to recording pause (the APC indicator flashes slowly) and press z REC to have the VCR analyze the tape (the APC indicator flashes rapidly). After the APC indicator stops flashing, press X PAUSE to start recording immediately. If you want to start recording quickly without using the APC function, first set the VCR to recording pause (the APC indicator flashes slowly) and press X PAUSE to start recording. Additional Operations 33 Changing menu options Press MENU, then press M/m to select ADVANCED OPTIONS and press OK. Press M/m to select the option to change, then press INDEX SEARCH. In these cases as well, the data registered up to the point when registration was interrupted remains in the SmartFile label. • When you set AUTO TAPE SPEED to ON in the ADVANCED OPTIONS menu, and the tape speed automatically changes from SP to EP during recording, the VCR displays the entire recording time converted in SP mode to the SmartFile list. SmartFile Function 63 Storing program data from the DIRECTV digital satellite receiver (Program Data Download) If you connect a DIRECTV digital satellite receiver equipped with the Program Data Download function and use the timer recording of the DIRECTV digital satellite receiver, the program and category name transmitted from the DIRECTV digital satellite receiver are stored on the SmartFile tape. The DIRECTV digital satellite receiver equipped with the Program Data Download function will be available in the future.
