How to set CLOSED CAPTION
• Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. “Closed
Caption” is a system which allows conversations, narration, and sound
effects in TV programs and home videos to appear as captions on the
TV screen (see the illustration).
• Not all the programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please
look for the “
” symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
• Closed Caption broadcast can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION
and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are available, CH1 and CH2.
The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and commentaries
of TV dramas and news programs while allowing clear view of the
picture.
The TEXT mode displays over the picture other various information
(such as TV program schedule, weather forecast, etc.) that is
independent of the TV programs.
1 Press MENU to access the MAIN MENU screen.
2 Press CH a/s to move the “E” mark to “CLOSED CAPTION”.
3 Press VOL k/l to access the CLOSED CAPTION setting screen.
4 Press CH a/s to move the “E” mark to either “MODE” or “DATA”.
5 Press VOL k/l to change the CLOSED CAPTION setting.
6 Press MENU to exit.
Note:
• If a broadcast contains CLOSED CAPTION and the MUTE button is pressed, the set enters CAPTION
mode automatically. Pressing MUTE again will return the set to its previous condition.
• Closed Caption may malfunction (white blocks, strange characters, etc.) if signal conditions are poor
or if there are problems at the broadcast source. This does not necessarily indicate a problem with
your TV.
• If any button is pressed to call up the ON SCREEN DISPLAY while viewing a CLOSED CAPTION
broadcast, the closed captions will disappear momentarily.
• If no TEXT broadcast is being received while viewing in the TEXT mode, the screen may become
dark and blank for some programs. Should this occur, switch the Closed Caption mode to “OFF”.
