Closed Captions | Philips 27DVCR55S instruction

Follow the steps below to select closed captions for TV pro- gramming. Not all TV programs and commercials have closed captions or all types of closed captions (second language, half-screen text, etc.). If closed captioning is not broadcast, you cannot receive it. This does not indicate a problem with the TV/VCR/DVD. Check your TV program listings for shows with closed captions.

If the TV/VCR/DVD receives poor quality television signals, the captions may contain errors, or there might be no cap- tions at all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:

●Automobile ignition noise

●Electric motor noise

●Weak signal reception

●Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)

●Playing poorly recorded or worn videotapes.
