Viewing Closed Captions

Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows.
These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign-language translations.
All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-recorded video
tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video tapes provide closed
captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule and on the
tape' s packaging:

Misspellings and unusual
characters sometimes occur during
closed caption transmissions, especially
those of live events. There may be a
small delay before captions appear when
you change channels. These are not
malfunctions of the TV.
In "Caption" mode, captions appear
at the bottom of the screen, and they usu-
ally cover only a small portion of the
picture.
In "Text" mode, information unrelated to
the program, such as news or weather, is
displayed. Text often covers a large
portion of the screen.
Different channels and fields
display different information: Field 2
carries additional information that
supplements the information in Field 1.
(For example, Channel 1 may have
subtitles in English, while Channel 2 has
subtitles in Spanish.)
