- PerfecTape Select: Analyzes the video cassette tape and makes fine adjustments for improved recordings and playback. It also allows the customer to preprogram the VCR for a desired level of picture sharpness.
- RentalXpress: Designed specifically for customers who regularly rent tapes, it automatically rewinds a tape when it reaches the end, ejects it, and then shuts off the VCR.
- 7-Step Shuttle: Provides precise tape speed control similar to that of a jog dial. Simply press the Pause button and then press FF or RW up to seven times for multiple frame-by-frame speeds in forward or reverse.
- OTR2: Mitsubishi's unique, easy-to-use method of one-touch program recording also provides a simple way to delay and extend the recording time. When first activated it automatically rounds the start time to the nearest half-hour and sets the recording time to 30 minutes. Each additional button press delays the start time by one half-hour (up to 24 hours). Pressing a 2nd button extends the recording time by increments of 30 minutes (up to 8 hours).
- Auto Clock Set: Adjusts the VCR clock setting automatically after receiving the time code transmitted in some TV broadcasts.
- Precision Gap Heads: Offers improved resolution by maintaining a flat video bandwidth, where lesser heads produce high-frequency losses and a corresponding lack of picture detail.
- EnergyStar Rating: Assures that these VCRs consume minimal AC power when not in use.
