CHECKING THE AMOUNT OF TAPE REMAINING
When you load a video tape into the VCR it can calculate approximately the amount of 
video tape remaining in hours and minutes. This is useful in determining whether or not there is

automatically.
To display the amount of video tape remaining:

the VCR display.  The tape will wind forward and then return to its original position. The 
tape remaining will be shown on the VCR display in hours and minutes.
By pressing the 
TAPE SPEED
 button on the remote control the remaining time will 
change between long play and standard play.
