Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption 1

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 2
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). It is 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 "[_]" 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 "OO1" and "002" services display
subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the
program's picture.

In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2"
services display text that is unrelated to the program
being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services
are also superimposed over the program currently
being viewed.

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 displayed in

A closed caption service appears in parentheses

because the service you selected is not available
and a different service is displayed on your screen.

Canadian Rating Systems (Canadian English ratings and Canadian French ratings)

• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)

policy on violence in television programming.

• While violence is the most important content element to be 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

years. Pays careful attention to themes that could threaten their
sense of security and welFbeing.

08+: 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.

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) because
it could 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.

In this case, operate the unit after first turning off the power of the TV or unplugging
the AC cord and replugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.

• is the FUNCTION set correctly? Set it to the TV setting position.

• Are batteries inserted with polarity (+, ) aligned? (See page 8.)

• Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)

• Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting?

• Is a fluorescent light illuminated near the remote control sensor?

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

,, When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed.

This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.

,, Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a

heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.
