Closed Caption 35

Follow the steps below to select closed captions for TV pro-
gramming. Not all TV programs and commercials have closed
captions or all types of closed captions (second language,
half-screen text, etc.). If closed captioning is not broadcast,
you cannot receive it.This does not indicate a problem with
the TV/VCR. Check your TV program listings for shows with
closed captions.
If the TV/VCR receives poor quality television signals, the
captions may contain errors, or there might be no captions at
all. Some possible causes of poor quality signals are:

Automobile ignition noise

Electric motor noise

Weak signal reception

Multiplex signal reception (ghosts or screen flutter)

Playback of poorly recorded or worn videotapes.
