On analog channels (Ant-A or Ant-B), broadcasters
can send either Standard or Text closed captioning.
Standard Closed Captions follow the dialogue of
the characters on-screen and display in a small
section of the screen. Text Closed Captions often
contain information such as weather or news and
covers a large portion of the screen. On digital
channels (Ant-DTV) broadcasters can send up to
6 different captioning selections. Each TV station
may broadcast only one or two types of captions or
none at all.
Analog Captions
The TV can display one of the following captions for
Analog sources:
CC1, CC2, CC3, or CC4 (Standard closed
captioning signals).
Text1, Text2, Text3, or Text4 (Text closed
captioning signals).
On if mute. Closed captions when mute. When
selected, the standard closed captioning signal (CC1)
will turn on/off by pressing the MUTE button on the TV
remote control.
Off. No closed captions.
Background
To make the analog closed captions easier to read,
you can choose to display the background color as
either black or gray behind the captions. If you use
Closed Captions frequently, Mitsubishi recommends
gray for the background to prevent uneven aging of
the picture tubes.
Note: See page 70 for information concerning
uneven aging of picture tubes.

Digital Channel Guide
(Figure 1)
Select ON to display the Digital Channel Guide
automatically when changing channels and while
viewing Ant-DTV. The Digital Channel Guide lists
the channel and sub-channels, channel name and
program title. The information is provided by the
broadcaster, hence, it may not be available for all
channels.
The content of captions is determined by
the broadcaster. If your captions show
strange characters, misspellings, or odd
grammar, it is not a malfunction of the TV.
IMPORTANT
When analog Text closed captioning
is selected, a large black or gray box
appears on your TV screen if no signal is
broadcast.
