Closed Captions

Closed Captioning allows you to read the voice content of television
programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired, this
feature uses on screen text boxes to show dialogue and conversations while
the TV program is in progress. Captions will appear on the screen during
captioned broadcasts.

Note: The captions do not always use correct spelling and grammar.

Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast with
Closed Caption information included. Refer to your area’s TV program listings for
the TV channels and times of Closed Caption shows. The captioned programs are
usually noted in the TV listings with service marks such as ‘CC’.
