CLOSED CAPTION
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE REMEDY
My TV/VCR is showing captions
that are misspelled.
You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed
captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A
prerecorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the
normal time available for editing the captions.
My TV/VCR will not show the
text in its entirety or there is a
delay of what is being said.
Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are
common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can
display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue
exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain
up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue.
My captions are scrambled with
white boxes on the TV screen.
Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc. may
cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear.
My program guide listed a TV
show as being closed captioned
but none of the captions were
displayed.
Broadcasters may at times use a time compression process to speed up the
actual program so that additional advertising time can be given. Since the
decoder cannot read the compressed information, captions will be lost.
My prerecorded video tape does
not show any captions. The tape
box mentions it being closed
captioned.
The video tape was either an illegal copy or the tape duplicating company
accidentally left out the captioning signals during the copying process.
My TV screen shows a black box
on certain channels.
You are in the TF.XT mode. Select CAPTION mode or CAPTION [OFF].
MAINTENANCE
CABINET CLEANING
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of
the TV/VCR with a soft cloth immersed in lukewarm
water and wrung dry.
• Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insecti¬
cide liquid near the TV/VCR. Such chemicals may
cause damage and discoloration to the exposed sur¬
faces.
HEAD CLEANING
• Picture playback may become blurred or interrupted
while the TV program reception is clear. This does
not mean that the recorded program has been erased.
Dirt accumulated on the video heads after long peri¬
ods of tape playback, or the usage of rental or worn
tapes can cause this problem. In this case, video head
cleaning requires highly technical attention, there¬
fore consult the nearest Funai Authorized Service
Center. Clean heads only when problems occur.
SERVICING
• Should yourTV/VCR become inoperative, do not try
to correct the problem by yourself. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the power
cord, and take the unit to the nearest Funai Author¬
ized Service Center for servicing.
