CAPTION

CLOSED CAPTIONING

Closed Captioning allows you to read the voice

content of television pro- grams on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired, this feature uses on screen "text boxes" to show dialogue and conversa- tions while the TV program is in progress.

Note: Broadcast stations will often use spelling abbrevia- tions, symbols, dropouts, and other grammatical shortcuts in order to keep pace with the on screen action. These factors vary upon the source of the captioned text materi- al and do not indicate a need for TV service.

Press the MENU button repeatedly to select CCD SELECT with the TV’s on screen arrow.

Operation Tips and Notes:

(1)Captions and texts may not match the TV voice exactly.

(2)Interference may cause the Closed Caption system to function improp- erly.

(3)Closed Captioning will not appear if the menu or channel number is on screen. Closed Captioning may be delayed briefly when you change channels.

(4)If a black box appears on screen, you have selected a TEXT mode. To clear the screen, set CCD SELECT to CAPTION C1, CAPTION C2, or CCD OFF.
