CAPTIONS
(CONTINUED)
Application
Your new TV is able to decode and display the closed cap-
tions and informational
text that are broadcast
with some
TV shows. Captions can be subtitles for the hearing im-
paired, or translations
into another language. Informational
text can be the daily program schedule for the TV station,
or special announcements.
Look for a (CC) or similar sign in your TV schedule, or on
the video tape cassette, which indicates that
captions
are
provided.
The closed caption signal is recorded by all VCRs when
recording
a TV broadcast or
copying a tape having
closed
captions.
About Closed Caption Operation
Once you turn CAPTIONS ON, they will stay ON until you
turn CAPTIONS
OFF. Captions will appear as they are
received. If captions stop being received, they will stop ap-
pearing on the TV. If they are received again, captions will
automatically
appear again on the TV. The captions will ap-
pear on the TV screen as they were created. If they were
created in color, they will appear in color. If they were
created in both upper and lower case letters, they will ap-
pear in both upper and lower case letters.
The TV can not show more than one on-screen display at a
time, so no captions will appear until all other displays have
been removed from the screen.
To remove a display that is interfering with captions, press
ENTER until the display disappears.
Likewise, you can in-
stanfly remove any captions by pressing ENTER to call up
the Channel/Time
display. When you press E]_VI'ER again,
the Channel/Time
display disappears and you return to cap-
tions.
