Adjusting CLOSED CAPTION Settings

A

•If a broadcast contains Closed Caption data and MUTE is pressed, the set enters CAPTION mode automatically.

Pressing MUTE again will return the set to its previous condition.

•Closed Caption may malfunction (white blocks, strange characters, etc.) if signal conditions are poor or if there are

problems at the broadcast source. This does not necessarily indicate a problem with your set.

•If any button is pressed to call up the On-Screen Display while viewing a Closed Caption broadcast, the closed

captions will disappear momentarily.

•If no TEXT broadcast is being received while viewing in the TEXT mode, the screen may become dark and blank

for some programs. Should this occur, switch the CLOSED CAPTION mode to OFF.

■SETTING CLOSED CAPTION

•This TV set is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. “Closed Caption” is

a system which allows conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs

and home videos to be viewed as captions on the TV screen (see the illustration).

•Not all programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the “ ”

symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.

•The Closed Caption broadcasts can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION and TEXT.

For each mode, two channels are available: CH1 and CH2.

The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and commentaries of TV dramas

and news programs while allowing a clear view of the picture.

The TEXT mode displays various information over the picture (such as TV program

schedules and weather forecasts, etc.) that is independent of the TV programs.
