22 Closed Captions
Follow the steps below to select Closed Captions for TV
programming. Not all TV programs and commercials have
Closed Captions or all types of Closed Captions (second
language, half-screen text, etc.). If Closed Captioning is not
broadcast, you cannot receive it.This does not indicate a
problem with the TV/DVD. Check your TV program listings
for shows with Closed Captions.
If the TV/DVD receives poor quality television signals, the
captions 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)
● Before you begin, press SELECT to put the TV/DVD
in TV mode.
