Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions
Your TV is equipped with an internal 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). 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 "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 that is unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.
1 Press CC.
This will present the Closed Caption information
display.
2 Press CC while the Closed Caption information is still on
the screen.
Press repeatedly until you select the desired closed
caption service.
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. 1/3 ENG) you selected is not available for the next program, or on another channel, the closed caption service that is available is automatically selected, and this service appears in parentheses, e.g. "1/3(CC1)". Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses will not be stored in the CC button’s memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are stored.

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions (Continue)
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 parentheses. 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".
NOTE
When "Power Saving" is set to "Standard" or "Advanced", the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel information window. See page 4-27 for details of Power Saving settings. See page 4-30 for detailed closed caption settings. When the program contains no closed caption, "--" displays in the closed caption information. If the language code, e.g. "ENG", is not found on Digital TV programs, "-- " will be shown. Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1, Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may contain none or only some of these services at the discretion of the program provider. When a web page is displayed, Closed Captions are not available. You can have the same settings by choosing "Change CC" on the menu items. (See page 4- 29.)

Parental Control (Parental Control Setting)
V-Chip
V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you activate the V- CHIP feature in your TV. "V- Chip" and "Status" will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret number.
The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings. The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television shows from their children. Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.
NOTE
The setting automatically enters "Block" for any ratings below your selection. If Status is not set to "On", the configuration settings will not work.

Example
Press / to adjust the item to your desired position. "
" indicates the item is blocked. Press MENU to exit.
G: General audiences. All ages admitted. PG: Parental guidance suggested. Some material may not
be suitable for children. PG-13: Parents strongly cautioned. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13. R: Restricted. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian (age varies in some jurisdictions).
NC-17: No one 17 and under admitted. X: X is an older rating that is unified with NC-17 but may be
encoded in the data of older movies.

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.

After you set the time once, the clock will continue to operate even if you disconnect from the network. However, you cannot switch the daylight saving time setting when disconnected from the network.
Data Source
For the wallpaper, you can select either the still images pre­installed in the TV or your favorite still images stored in the USB memory device or SD memory card.
Pre-Installed: The images pre-installed in the TV will be
displayed in a slideshow.
SD/SDHC/USB: Your favorite images stored for the
wallpaper will appear. If only a single still image is stored in the USB memory device or SD memory card, that image will be displayed as the wallpaper. When there are multiple still images in the memory, all the images will be displayed in a slideshow.
NOTE
Images are displayed in 3-minute intervals as a slideshow. When the TV is in Wallpaper mode, you can turn off the TV by pressing and holding POWER on the TV for 5 seconds.
- Just before the TV turns off, the last image shown when the TV was turned off appears briefly.
- Your settings may not be saved in some cases.
When you display images by using the USB memory
device or SD memory card:
Create a folder named "WP" in the root directory of the
USB memory device or SD memory card (the first directory when the USB memory device or SD memory card is opened), and store into the folder the still images you want to display for the wallpaper.
You must insert the USB memory device or SD memory
card to the TV before turning off the TV.
If there are images on the USB memory device or SD
memory card but they do not appear on the screen, switch to SD/USB mode and check whether the image files on the USB memory device or SD memory card are shown correctly.
Timer Setting
You can set the length of time the TV will remain in the Wallpaper Mode.
3 hours/6 hours/12 hours/24 hours
NOTE
No buttons except for POWER work even while the still
images are being displayed.
If the ready-for-use USB memory device or SD memory
card is not inserted, the still images pre-installed in the TV will be displayed in a slideshow even when "Data Source" is set to "SD/SDHC/USB".
Because the USB memory device or SD memory card
cannot be detected immediately after the TV is turned on from standby mode, the wallpaper pre-installed in the TV may be displayed even when "Data Source" is set to "SD/SDHC/USB".
The still images will be displayed until the set time has
elapsed.
Clock
Configures clock settings. Set the type of clock to use in wallpaper mode.
Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter:A clock that represents the
corresponding season will be displayed. Random:A randomly selected clock from among the four
types will be displayed.

Using the Internet
Connecting to the Internet
By connecting your TV to a broadband system, you can access the Internet from the TV.
You can enjoy a variety of streaming content and Internet applications.
(See pages 8- 11 to 8-13.)
NOTE
To connect your TV to the Internet, you must have a broadband Internet connection. If you do not have a broadband Internet connection, consult the store where you purchased your
TV or ask your Internet service provider or telephone company.
When an Internet connection is made, an Ethernet and wireless connection cannot be used at
the same time. Use only one of the connection types.
Using an ETHERNET cable
Use an ETHERNET cable (commercially available) to connect the ETHERNET terminal on the TV to your broadband router (commercially available).
Using the wireless LAN
This TV is equipped with a wireless LAN function. For a wireless LAN connection, you must use "Wireless Setup" to connect the access point and TV.
NOTE
This TV has a built- in wireless LAN function. Using a separate wireless USB LAN adapter may
result in radio communications that do not comply with regulations on radio communications. Therefore, do not use a separate wireless LAN adapter.
A wireless LAN connection and performance cannot be guaranteed for all residential
environments. In the following cases, the wireless LAN signal may be poor or drop, or the connection speed may become slower.
- When used in buildings made with concrete, reinforced steel, or metal
- When placed near objects that obstruct the signal
- When used with other wireless devices that emit the same frequency
- When used in the vicinity of microwave ovens and other devices that emit a magnetic field, electrostatic charge, or electromagnetic interference
When there is significant interference in the 2.4 -GHz frequency (such as from other wireless
LAN devices, Bluetooth® devices, 2.4-GHz cordless telephones, and microwave ovens), it is recommended that you use a wireless LAN router/access point that supports IEEE802.11a/n (5 GHz) and set the access point to transmit at 5 GHz. For setup details, see the operation manual of your access point.
