Your TVisequipped withaninternal Closed Caption
decoder.
It
allows you to view conversations, narration
and sound effects as subtitles on your
TV.
Closed Captions are available on some TV programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the program provider.
Digital Closed Caption service
is
a new caption service available only on digital TV programs (also at the discretion
of
the service provider).Itis
a more flexible system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows for a variety
of
caption sizes and font
styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service
is
in use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter abbreviation that also indicates the language of the Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish), FRA (French) or other language codes.
Not
all
programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
captions. Please look for the
"[CC)"
symbol to ensure
that captions will be shown. In
the Closed Caption system, there can be more than
one caption service provided. Each
is
identified by its
own number. The
"CC1
" and "CC2" services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program's picture.
In
the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2" services display text thatisunrelatedtothe program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.

Closed Caption
information
• Depending on the number
of
caption services
in the signal being received, you will see information such as 1/2
or
1/4
displayed.
1/2
means "the first of
two
services". Example: If
a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG),
CC1
and Text1), the closed caption display will
toggle
in
this sequence:
..~-~
..
~.
• The CC button keeps a record of the last service selected
in
its memory. If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3ENG) you selected
is
not available for the next program,
or on another channel, the closed caption service thatisavailableisautomatically selected, and this service appears
in
parentheses, e.g."1/3(CC1)".
Closed Caption services that appear
in parentheses will not be storedinthe CC button's memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are stored.
Examples:
In
a case where there are
two
closed caption services provided, (for instance, Digital CC(ENG) and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is
displayed as your current selection, if
Digital CC(ENG)
is
not broadcast for the next program, the other closed caption service, CC1
, will be displayedinparentheses.
A closed caption service appears
in parentheses because the service you selected is
not available and a different service
is
displayed on your screen. "1/1 (CC1)"
is
displayed instead of "1/2/ENG".

Canadian Rating Systems
• The1Vrating systemsinCanada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) policy on violence
in
television programming.
• While violence
is
the most important content elementtobe rated, the structure developed takes into
consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.
• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the Canadian French ratings.
Canadian English ratings
E Exempt: Includes news, sports, documentaries and other information programming; talk shows,
music videos, and variety programming.
C Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years. Pays careful attention to themes
that could threaten their sense of security and well-being.
C8+ Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence
as
the preferred, acceptable, or only
way to resolve conflict; nor encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which they may see
on
the screen.
Age
G
General: Considered acceptable for
all
age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family,
contains very little violence, physical, verbal or emotional.
PG
Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger children
(under the age of
8)
becauseitcould contain controversial themes or issues.
14+ Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence
is
one of the dominant elements of the
storyline, but
it
must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language usage could
be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.
18+ Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain depictions of violence, which
while related to the development of plot, character or themes, are intended for adult viewing.
Could contain graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.
Canadian French ratings

Age
13ans+

Exempt programming. General:
All
ages and children, contains minimal direct violence, but may be integrated into the
plot
in
a humorous or unrealistic manner.
General but inadvisable for young children: May
be
viewed by a wide public audience, but could
contain scenes disturbing to children under 8 who cannot distinguish between imaginary and
real
situations. Recommended for viewing with parent. Over 13 years: Could contain scenes of frequent violent scenes and therefore recommended for
viewing with parent. Over 16 years: Could contain frequent violent scenes and intense violence.
