œMisspellings and unusual
characters sometimes occur
during closed caption
transmissions, especially those of
live events. There may be a small
delay before captions appear when
you change channels. These are
not malfunctions of the TV.
œIn “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.
œDepending on the particular
broadcast, it might be necessary to
make changes to “Channel” and
“Field”.
œDifferent 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.)

Viewing Closed Captions(On-Screen Text Messages)

Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows.

These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign-language translations.

All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-recorded video

tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video tapes provide closed

captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule and on the

tape’s packaging: .
