resume recording on the tape in the VCR, press the Start/Stop button and then the S.EDIT button.

p.44). Press the COUNTER RESET button on the remote control where you wish the recording to stop. The linear
time counter resets to 0:00:00M. Rewind to the point where you wish to start recording and start copying. When
the linear time counter reaches 0:00:00 the recording stops automatically, pausing the VCR in the record mode.
Note: If the tape counter reads "0:00:00M" you cannot start recording.
Note: Reduce the volume of the camcorder as low as possible during dubbing. Otherwise the played back
pictures could be distorted.

machine).
Note: Only the VM-RM20EDA edit remote control (optional) can be used with this camcorder.
Note: Some VCRs cannot be operated by the edit remote control (optional).
