Tune the TV to the desired program.
Your TV/DVD is equipped with an internal Closed
Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations,
narration and sound effects as subtitles on your
TV/DVD. Closed Captions are available on some TV
programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the
discretion of the program provider.
Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption
service available only on digital TV programs (also
at the discretion of the service provider).
It is a more
flexible system than the original Closed Caption
system, because it allows a variety of caption
sizes and font styles. When the Digital Closed
Caption service is in use, it will be indicated by
the appearance of a 3-letter abbreviation that also
indicates the language of the Digital Closed Captions:
ENG (English), SPA (Spanish), FRA (French) or other
language codes.
Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
captions. Please look for the "_"
symbol to ensure
that captions will be shown.
In the Closed Caption system, there can be more
than one caption service provided.
Each is identified
by its own number. The "C1" and "C2" services
display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over
the program's picture. Generally, Closed Captions in
English are transmitted on Cl and Closed Captions in
other languages are transmitted on C2.
In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2"
services display text that is unrelated to the program
being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services
are also superimposed
over the program currently
being viewed.

If the program
or video you selected
is not closed-captioned,
no captions
will display
on-screen.
If text is not available
in your viewing
area, a black
rectangle
may appear
on-screen.
If this happens,
set the Closed
Caption
feature
to "OFF".
When
selecting
Closed
Captions,
the captioning
will be delayed
approx.
10 seconds.
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 be seen but may interfere
with
Closed
Captions.
Some Cable
TV 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.
