Notes

•After selecting a closed caption mode, it will stay in effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed.

•If the captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the captions will reappear when the signal is received again.

•When selecting closed captions, the captioning might be delayed momentarily.

•If the channels are changed, the captions might be delayed momentarily.

•If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the closed caption decoder text may not appear. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.

•When activating the closed captioned decoder, there will be a short delay before the closed captioned text appears on the screen.

•The captions will appear in places on the screen where they will least interfere with the picture, usually on the bottom of the screen. News programs will usually show three-line closed captions which scroll onto the screen. Most other shows provide two or three lined captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer can follow the dialogue.

•If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the caption mode.

•Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during closed captioning. This is normal with closed captioning, entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing.

•Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the closed captioned signal.

•Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.

•For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look in your TV guide for the closed captions symbol (CC).
