Viewing Closed Captions
The unit decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows. These captions are
usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign language translations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal
from television programs, so home-recorded video tapes also provide closed captions. Most prerecorded
commercial video tapes provide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television
schedule and on the tape’s packaging: .
Note:
The Caption feature only works in TV and AV mode.
Not all the programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
In multi window mode, the Caption feature only applies to main picture.
