CLOSED CAPTION SYSTEM

You can view specially labeled (cc) TV programs, movies, news, pre-recorded tapes with either a dia- logue caption or text display.

CAPTION mode: By choosing the caption mode, you can watch dramas, movies and news while captioning the dialogues and the contents of news.

TEXT mode: By choosing the text mode, you can watch half screen text information if you want.

1-2:You may get these captions or text information by selecting either “1” or “2”. Caption “2” is used, usually for a second language if available.

NOTE:

Not all programs are broadcast with closed captions. Your television is designed to provide error free closed captions from high quality antenna, cable and VCR signals. Conversely, poor quality signals are likely to result in caption errors or no captions at all. Common signal conditions which may cause captions errors are listed below:

•Automobile ignition noise

•Electric motor brush noise

•Weak snowy reception on TV screen

•Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts or airplane flutter.

•Playback of poorly recorded or worn VCR tapes.

NOTE:

If the TV/VCR displays a black box on the TV screen, this means that the TV/VCR

is set to the TEXT mode. To clear screen, select [CAPTION1], [CAP- TION2] or [OFF].

Make sure ...

•TV/VCR power must be turned on.
