Broadcasters can send either Standard or Text closed captioning. Standard closed captioning follows the dialogue of the char- acters on-screen and displays in a small sec- tion of the screen. Text closed captioning often contains information such as weather or news and covers a large portion of the on-screen program. Your TV can decode four different standard and four different text closed captioning signals from each TV sta- tion. However, each TV station may broad- cast only one or two closed captioning signals, or none at all.

Within the Captions menu, you can turn on or off the closed caption decoder, select the type of captions or text, and choose black or translucent gray as the background color for the closed caption area.

When Text closed captioning is selected, a large black or gray box will appear on your TV screen if no signal is broadcast.

The TV can display one of the following:

CC1, CC2, CC3, or CC4: Standard closed captioning signals.

Text1, Text2, Text3, or Text4: Text closed

captioning signals.

On if mute: Closed captions when mute. When selected, the standard closed cap- tioning signal (CC1) will turn on/off by press- ing the MUTE button on the TV remote control.

Off: No closed captions.

The content of captions is determined by the broadcaster. If your captions show strange characters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not a malfunction of the TV.
