Viewing Closed Captions

Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows.

These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign-language trans-
lations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so home-record-

ed video tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video tapes pro-

vide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television schedule

and on the tape’s packaging:

appear at the bottom of the

only a small portion of the pic-

Text often covers a large portion
of the screen.
