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

symbol ( ) on the tape’s package or your TV program-schedule.

TV is malfunctioning.) Move the joystick down to
select the “Mode”. Move the joystick right or left to

as news or weather, is displayed. Text often covers a
large portion of the screen.

captioning channel or field. Then, press Menu to
