54 Closed Caption

When you watch a program that is being broadcast with closed captions, you can access on-screen boxes containing the pro- gram’s dialogue (for example, what a character is saying), dialogue in a foreign language, or information (such as a channel guide, schedule, or announcements). Follow the steps below to select closed captions.

Not all TV programs and commercials are broadcast with closed captions. Similarly, all types of closed captions (second language, half-screen text, etc.) are not always broadcast. If closed caption- ing is not broadcast, you cannot receive it. This does not indicate a problem with the TV/VCR. Refer to your area’s TV program listings for the shows offered with closed captions.
