IMPORTANT
• Analog text-service options display a large
black or gray box on the screen when no
signal is being broadcast.
• Thecontentofcaptionsisdeterminedbythe
broadcaster. If captions show strange char-
acters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not
a malfunction of the TV.
•
Closed-caption signals are not available through
HDMI or component jacks. See the menus for
devices connected to these inputs for closed-
caption decoding.
