Using Closed Caption
Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed Captions are available on some TV programs, and on some VHS home video tapes, at the election of the program provider.
Digital Closed Caption service is a caption service available only on digital TV programs (also at the election of the service provider).

Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed caption. Look for the symbol to ensure that captions appear.
In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service provided. Each is identified by its own number. CC1 and CC2 services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program picture.
In the Closed Caption system, the Text1 or Text2 services display text that is unrelated to the program being viewed, such as weather or news. These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.
■Depending on the number of caption services in the signal being received, you will see information such as 1/2 or 1/4 displayed. 1/2 means “the first of two services.”
■Example: If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1 and Text1), the closed caption display toggles in sequence.
■The CC button keeps a record of the last service selected in its memory.
If the last closed caption mode you selected is not available for the next program, or on another channel, the closed caption service that is available is automatically selected, and this service appears in parentheses.
Closed caption services that appear in parentheses is not retained in the CC button memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are retained.
