Viewing Closed Captions

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 trans- lations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-record- ed video tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video tapes pro- vide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule

and on the tape’s packaging: .

▼ Misspellings and unusual

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.)
