tion or all types of the closed caption.

 

 

 

• To show the closed caption on your TV screen, broadcast

 

 

 

 

signal must contain the closed caption data.

 

 

 

 

• Not all TV programs and commercials have the closed cap-

 

 

 

 

• Captions and texts may not match the TV voice exactly.

 

 

 

 

• Changing channels may delay the closed caption for a few

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

seconds.

• Adjusting or muting the volume may delay the closed cap-

 

 

 

tion for a few seconds.

 

 

SETTING

action. This is not a problem with the unit.

 

 

• Abbreviations, symbols and other grammatical shortcuts

 

 

 

may be used in order to keep pace with the on-screen

 

 

 

• The caption or text characters will not be displayed while

 

 

 

 

 

the main menu or functions display is shown.

 

WATCHING

• If a black box appears on the TV screen, this means that the

 

 

 

closed caption is set to TEXT mode. To clear the box, select

 

 

“CAPTION1”, “CAPTION2” or “OFF”.

 

 

• If the unit receives poor quality television signals, the cap-

 

TV

tions may contain errors, or there might be no captions at

 

all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:

 

 

- Automobile ignition noise

 

 

 

- Electric motor noise

 

 

OPERATING

- Weak signal reception

 

 

 

- Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)

 

 

 

• The unit retains the closed caption setting if the power fails.

 

 

 

• When your TV receives a special effects playback signal (i.e.,

 

 

VCR

Search, Slow and Still) from a VCR's video output channel

 

 

(CH3 or CH4), the TV may not display the correct caption or

 

 

 

text.
