If you don't know which Closed-Caption mode to use, select

Using Closed Captioning
Many programs are encoded with closed-captioning
information, which lets you display the audio portion of a
program as text on the TV screen.
Closed captioning is not available on all channels at all
times. Only specific programs encoded with closed-
captioning information are applicable. When a program is
closed captioned, the CC icon is displayed in the channel
banner. See Chapter 2 for more information about the
channel banner.
Closed-Caption Modes
The TV offers eight closed-captioned modes, including
four text modes.
To set the Closed-Caption Mode:
1. Select Screen from the Main menu.
2. Highlight Closed-Caption Mode and press OK (the
Closed-Caption Mode appears).
3. Highlight your choice and press OK (the Screen
menu appears again).
Note: The Text modes cover nearly half of the
picture on the screen to display the closed-
captioned text. Most broadcasters use the CC
mode, which displays a few lines of captions at
a time.
