CAPTION1 and TEXT1;
are the primary caption and text services.
The captioning or text is displayed in the same
language as the program’s dialogue
(up to 4 lines of script on the TV screen, where it does
not obstruct relevant parts of the picture).
CAPTION2 and TEXT2;
are rarely available and broadcasters use them
only in special conditions, such as when “CAPTION1”
or “TEXT1” is not available.
There are 3 display modes according to programs:
Paint-on mode: Displays input characters on the TV
screen immediately.
Pop-on mode: Once characters are stored in memo-
ry, they are displayed all at once.
Roll-up mode: Displays the characters continuously
by scrolling (max. 4 lines).
3Press [SET-UP] to exit.

Note:
• To show the closed caption on your TV screen, broadcast
signal must contain the closed caption data.
• Not all TV programs and commercials have the closed cap-
tion or all types of the closed caption.
• Captions and texts may not match the TV voice exactly.
• Changing channels may delay the closed caption for a few
seconds.
• Adjusting or muting the volume may delay the closed cap-
tion for a few seconds.
• Abbreviations, symbols and other grammatical shortcuts
may be used in order to keep pace with the on-screen
action. This is not a problem with the unit.
• The caption or text characters will not be displayed while
the main menu or functions display is shown.
• If a black box appears on the TV screen, this means that the
closed caption is set to TEXT mode. To clear the box, select
“CAPTION1”, “CAPTION2” or “OFF”.
• If the unit receives poor quality television signals, the cap-
tions may contain errors, or there might be no captions at
all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:
- Automobile ignition noise
- Electric motor noise
- Weak signal reception
- Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)
• The unit retains the closed caption setting if the power fails.
