Note:

A closed caption signal may not be decoded in the following situations:

when a video tape has been dubbed

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.
