Viewing Closed Caption Information
Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions information that is broadcast along with some
television shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or translations into
other languages. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so pre-
recorded video tapes can also deliver closed-caption information. Check for the closed caption
symbol ( ) on the tape’s package or your TV program-schedule.
Closed Captions

Press the Menu button. Move
the joystick down to select
SETUP, then press the joystick
to enter.
2
Move the joystick down to

Move the joystick right or left
to turn closed captioning
on/off. Misspelling and unusu-
al characters sometimes occur
in closed caption transmis-
sions, especially those of live
events. There may be a small
delay before captions appear
when you change channels. (These do not indicate the
TV is malfunctioning.) Move the joystick down to
select the “Mode”. Move the joystick right or left to
choose “Caption” or “Text.” ln caption mode, cap-
tions appear at the bottom of the screen, and they
usually cover only a small portion of the picture. In
text mode, information unrelated to the program, such
as news or weather, is displayed. Text often covers a
large portion of the screen.

may have subtitles in English, while Channel 2 has
subtitles in Spanish.

Auto Volume
Each broadcasting station has its own signal conditions, and it is inconvenient to adjust
the volume every time the channel is changed. “Auto volume” automatically adjusts the
volume of the desired channel by lowering the sound output when the modulation signal
is high or by raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low.
