Setting Closed Captioning

This television has the capability to decode and display Closed Captioned television programs. Closed Captioning displays text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it translates and displays text in another language.

Two Closed Caption modes are available:

•Captions: This Closed Caption mode displays text on the screen in English or another language. Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted on C1 and Closed Captions in other languages are transmitted on C2.

•Text: The Text Closed Caption mode usually fills half of the screen with a programming schedule or other information.

Notes	• If the program or video you selected is not
	closed-captioned, no captions display
	on-screen, but the television remains in
	the Caption Mode.
	• 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 is delayed approximately 10
	seconds.
	• Misspellings or unusual characters may
	occasionally appear during Closed
	Captioning. This is normal, especially with
	live programs, 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.
