action. This is not a problem with the unit.

• The caption or text characters will not be displayed while

the main menu or functions display is shown.

closed caption is set to TEXT mode. To clear the box, select

“CAPTION 1”, “CAPTION 2”, “CAPTION 3, “CAPTION 4” or

“OFF”.

• If the unit receives poor quality television signals, the

captions may contain errors, or there might be no captions

at all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:

- Automobile ignition noise

- Electric motor noise

- Weak signal reception

- Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)

• The unit retains the closed caption setting if the power fails.

CAPTION1 and TEXT1;

are the primary caption and text services.

The captioning or text is displayed in the same language as the program’s dialogue

(up to 4 lines of script on the TV screen, where it does not obstruct relevant parts of the picture).

CAPTION3 and TEXT3;

serve as the preferred data channels.

The captioning or text is often a secondary language.

are rarely available and broadcasters use them only in special conditions, such as when “CAPTION1” and “CAPTION3” or “TEXT1” and “TEXT3” are not available.

Paint-on mode:

Displays input characters on the TV screen immediately.

Pop-on mode:

Once characters are stored in memory, they are displayed all at once.
