Useful Features (Continued) CLOSED CAPTION ■ Setting CLOSED CAPTION • This LCD TV set is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. "Closed Caption" is a system which allows conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and home videos to be viewed as captions on the TV screen (see the illustration). • Not all programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the " " symbol to ensure that captions will be shown. • The Closed Caption broadcasts can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are available: CH1 and CH2. The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and commentaries of TV dramas and news programs while allowing a clear view of the picture. The TEXT mode displays various information over the picture (such as TV program schedules and weather forecasts, etc.) that is independent of the TV programs. 1 Press MENU to display the Menu screen. 2 Press \/| to select "SETUP". 3 Press '/" to select "CLOSED CAPTION ", and press ENTER. 4 Press '/" to change the CLOSED CAPTION setting, and press ENTER.

Should this occur, switch the CLOSED CAPTION mode to "OFF". • If you select "CC1", "CC2", "T1" or "T2" (or MUTE is pressed) while "VIEW MODE" is set to "ZOOM" or "STRETCH", "VIEW MODE" will be changed to "4:3" or "16:9" automatically.
