Closed Caption
Closed Captioning allows you to read the dialog of
television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help
the hearing impaired, this feature uses on screen "text
boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV
program is in progress. Captions will appear on the
screen only during captioned broadcasts.
Remark: the captions do not always use correct spelling and
grammar.
Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for
broadcast with Closed Caption information included. Refer to
your area's TV program listings for the TV channels and times
of Closed Caption shows. The captioned programs are usually
noted in the TV listings with service marks such as "CC".
