NOTES: • If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder text may not appear.

In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.

• When activating the Closed Captioned Decoder, there will be a short delay before the Closed Captioned text

appears on the screen.

• Closed Captioned TV programs can be recorded and played back on a VCR with the Closed Captioned text intact.

The Closed Captioning text will disappear during Cue, Rewind and Pause modes or if the VCR tracking is not adjusted properly.

• Closed Captioned text is only displayed in locations where it is available.

• If the Call display is on, the Closed Captioning text will not appear.

CHANNEL RETURN

This button allows you to go back to the last channel selected by pressing the CHANNEL RETURN button. Press this button again to return to the last channel you were watching.

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

This television has the capability to decode and display Closed Captioned television programs. Closed Captioning will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another language.

CLOSED CAPTIONING WITH A VCR

Closed Captioned programs can be recorded and played back on a VCR with the Closed Captioned text intact. The Closed Captioned text will disappear during Cue (Fast Forward Search), Review (Rewind Search) and Pause Modes or if the VCR tracking is not adjusted properly.

TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS

Press the CLOSED CAPTION button on the remote control to switch between normal TV and the two Closed Caption Modes (Captions and Full Screen Text).

Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the screen in English or another language (depending on the setting of the Closed Captions CH. 1 or 2). Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted on Captions Channel 1 and Closed Captions in other languages are transmitted on Captions Channel 2.

Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill the screen with a programming schedule or other information. After selecting a Closed Caption Mode, it will stay in effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed. If the Captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the Captions will reappear when the signal is received again. If the channels are changed, the Captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds. The Captions will appear in places on the screen where they will least interfere with the picture, usually on the bottom of the screen. News programs will usually show three-line Closed Captions which scroll onto the screen. Most other shows provide two or three lined Captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer can follow the dialogue. Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes. For television programs broadcasting with Closed Captions, look in your TV guide for the Closed Captions symbol (CC).

ENGLISH

• When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode.

• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with

Closed Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing.

• When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with Closed Captions.

• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.

• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or

may appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.
