About captions
Once you have chosen a caption setting, all available captions on that setting will be displayed when
you watch TV. If no captions appear, it is because there are no captions being broadcast for that
show. Look for a “CC” mark in the TV listings or on video tapes. This mark indicates that captions
are provided for that program.
Please note: The content and appearance of captions are determined by the broadcaster, not by the
TV. If the captions display strange characters, misspellings, or odd words, those errors are made by
the broadcaster, not your TV. Errors in captioning are more common during live programs than
during taped programs.
Your TV cannot display captions when it is displaying any other on-screen information. If you use
the RECALL or VOL buttons, the captions will briefly disappear.
Note
A closed-captioned signal may not be decoded in the following situations.
– When a video tape has been dubbed
– When the signal reception is weak
– When the signal reception is non-standard
