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: .

Depending on the particular broadcast, it might be necessary to
make changes to “Channel” and “Field”:
Use the joystick buttons to make the changes. (Follow the same pro-
cedure as in steps 3~4 above.)
Press the Menu button to exit.
Different channels and fields
display different information:
Field 2
carries additional information that
supplements the information in
Field 1. (For example, Channel 1
may have subtitles in English,
while Channel 2 has subtitles in
Spanish.)

In caption mode, captions
appear at the bottom of the
screen, and they usually cover
only a small portion of the pic-

Text often covers a large portion
of the screen.
