password.
• The V-Chip function is activated only on programs and tapes that have the rating signal.
• Once you block a program using the V-Chip function, the blocked program cannot be watched based on the content of the
show. When the program starts, the "INPUT PASSWORD" will appear on the screen. When you want to release the V-
Chip temporarily, enter the password.
If you change the channel or turn off the TV while the V-Chip function was temporarily released, the original setting will be
resumed. If you return to the channel you were watching you must re-enter your password to temporarily release your V-
Chip function again.
• If you are changing channels using a VCR or a cable box, while the TV remains on channel 3 or 4, the V-Chip operates
differently. When you enter your password to temporarily release the block on any channel, you have completely disabled
the V-Chip function for all stations. To reset the V-Chip turn your TV off and back on.
• Some cable boxes are built with a delay feature, in some cases it can take up to 10 seconds for a program to appear after
the password has been input.

• Closed Captioned text is only displayed in locations where it is available.
• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode.
• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with Closed Captioning,
especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow
time for editing.
• When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with Closed
Captions.
• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.
• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may appear with strange
characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.
