Setting Up Closed Captioning

Your TV can display closed captions for programs that include them. Closed captions display a transcription of a program’s dialogue.

If the program you are viewing is not being broadcast with closed captions, the TV will not display them.

The Closed Captioning menu only appears when the input is an antenna for Over-the-Air signals, cable TV directly from the wall (no cable box), or a device with a composite video connection.
