Depending on the particular broadcast, it might be necessary to make changes to “Channels” and “Field”:
Use the ▲, ▼, ˇ and ˆ buttons to make the changes. (Follow the same procedure as in steps 3~4 above.)
Press the EXIT button to exit.
characters sometimes occur during closed caption transmissions, especial- ly those of live events. There may be a small delay before captions appear when you change channels. These are not malfunctions of the TV.
▼ In caption mode, captions appear at the bottom of the screen, and they usually cover only a small portion of the picture.
In text mode, information unrelated to the program, such as news or weather, is displayed. Text often covers a large portion of the screen.
▼ Different channels and fields display different information: Field 2 carries additional information that supplements the information in Field 1. (For example, Channel 1 may have subtitles in English, while Channel 2 has subtitles in Spanish.)
