Variable Search System  
Press the SEARCH button to display the search screen in the stop  
mode. When a program is recorded, the starting point is given an  
Index mark for easy location. However, the VHS Index Search  
System (VISS) cannot recognize index marks made by old VCRs. If  
the VCR has trouble finding a mark, it is probably because the  
cassette was recorded on a VCR without VISS. If you want to index  
two programs in a row, set your VCR to stop, then start recording  
each program. Pause has no effect on index marks.

tape where you want to set the counter to 0:00:00. Later, while a  
cassette is stopped, press the up arrow button. The VCR will  
rewind or fast forward, searching for the 0:00:00 counter position,  
and then automatically stop at that position.  
End search  
Use this feature when you want to search for a blank position to  
record a program on a cassette. While a cassette is stopped, press  
down arrow button. The VCR will fast forward, searching for a  
blank position, and then automatically stop at that position.  
If the VCR reaches the end of the tape during end search, the tape  
will be ejected.
