C losed Captioning allows you to
read the voice content of televi­
sion 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.
Note: Broadcast stations will often
use spelling abbreviations, symbols,
dropouts and other grammatical
shortcuts in order to keep pace with
the on-screen action. These type fac­
tors vary upon the source of the cap­
tioned text material and do not indi­
cate a need for service on the part of
the TV.
Press the CC button on the remote
control repeatedly to select the Closed
Captioning mode you desire (CAP­
TION 1, CAPTION 2, CAPTION
MUTE, and CAPTION OFF).
Note; Usually “Caption 1" is the
most used mode to view captioned
material.
Press the STATUS button after
making your Caption mode selec­
tion. The TV display will clear and
Captioning material (if available on
the currently selected TV program)
will appear on the TV screen.
To cancel, set the CAPTION feature
to CAPTION OFF when finished
viewing.

Remember, not all TV
% programs and product com­
mercials are made for broadcast with
Closed Caption (CC) information
included. Neither are all Closed
Caption modes (CAPTION 1 or
CAPTION 2) necessarily being used
by a broadcast station during the
transmission of a closed caption pro­
gram. Refer to your area's TV pro­
gram listings for the stations and
times of Closed Caption shows.
Caption 1 or Caption 2 mode: dialogue
(and descriptions) for the action on the
captioned TV program shows on-screen.
