Using the TV’s
Features
Setting the sleep timer
You can set the TV so it turns off automatically.
To set the sleep timer:
Repeatedly press the SLEEP button on the remote control. The clock
will count down 10 minutes for each press of the SLEEP button (120,
110, ...10, 0). After the sleep time is programmed, the display will
appear briefly every ten minutes to remind you that the sleep timer is
operating.
To confirm the sleep timer setting:
Press the SLEEP button and the remaining time will be momen-
tarily displayed.
To cancel the sleep timer:
Repeatedly press the SLEEP button until the display turns to 0.
Using the closed caption feature
You have two options with the closed caption feature: captions or text.
A caption is a printed version of the dialogue, narration and/or sound
effects of a TV program. Text is information not related to the program
that appears on half of the TV screen.
To view captions or text:
1. Select the desired program. The captioned programs are usually
marked in your local TV listing by “CC”.
2. Press CAP/TEXT repeatedly to select caption or text mode.
CAPTION CH1 TEXT CH1
CAPTION CH2 TEXT CH2
3. Press 1/2 to select the caption or text channel.
Note:

A closed caption signal may not be decoded

in the following situations:

•when a video tape has been dubbed

•when the signal reception is weak

•when the signal reception is non-standard

When you choose a closed captioned channel

and the text mode, the text screen always

appears as a black box. When there is no

signal, however, the text screen will not

display text characters. Repeatedly press

CAP/TEXT until the box disappears.

4. To turn off the closed-captioned feature, press CAP/TEXT
repeatedly until the normal TV viewing appears on the screen.
