input.

On When Muted Captioning information is only shown when available and the
TV’s sound is muted. (To mute the sound, press the MUTE button on the remote
control and captioning information will appear on the screen, if available.)

even when you choose On when Muted.
Analog Captions
You can select a closed caption mode, which is the mode, or source, used for displaying
captioning information for analog channels or digital channels, if available. The content of
CC and Text are different; you can select which one you want to see on the screen.
CC Displays information at any position on the screen. It overlays the text on top of
the picture as it is received.
Tex t Displays information at one particular position (such as the bottom third) of
the screen. You cannot see the picture underneath the text.
You can choose between eight closed caption modes:
• CC1 and Text 1 are the primary caption and text services. The captioning or
text is displayed in the same language as the program’s dialog.
• CC3 and Text 3 serve as the preferred data channels. The captioning or text is
often a secondary language translation, simplifi ed English, or displayed at a
slower rate.
• CC2 and CC4 and Te xt 2 and Text 4 are rarely available and broadcasters use
them only in special conditions, such as when CC1 and CC3 are not available,
or Text 1 and Text 3 are not available.
Digital Captions
You can select a closed caption, service mode (1-6) for digital channels.
Service 1 and Service 2 are the primary and secondary languages, respectively.
Service 3 and Service 4, 5, 6 are additional caption sources that may be available. Specifi c label names may be displayed (e.g., Spanish)
instead of a generic label (e.g., Service 1), if available.
