Viewing Closed Captions(On-Screen Text Message)

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: .

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.

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.
