DISPLAY Displays channel information being viewed. Press DISPLAY. Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed Captions are available on some TV programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the program provider. It is a more flexible system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter abbreviation that also indicates the language of the Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish), FRA (French) or other language codes. Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed captions. Please look for the "N" symbol to ensure that captions will be shown. In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service provided. Each is identified by its own number. The "CC1" and "CC2" services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program's picture. In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2" services display text that is unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed. 1 Press CC. • This will present the Closed Caption information display. 2 Press CC while the Closed Caption information is still on the screen. • Press repeatedly until you select the desired closed caption service. Air ANALOG 2 Audio : MONO CC : 1/2 CC1 Ratings : NONE Closed Caption information Example: If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1 and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this sequence: 1/3 ENG 2/3 CC1 3/3 Text1 Off • The CC button keeps a record of the last service selected in its memory. If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3ENG) you selected is not available for the next program, or on another channel, the closed caption service that is available is automatically selected, and this service appears in parentheses, e.g. "1/3(CC1)". Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses will not be stored in the CC button's memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are stored. • See page 25 for detailed closed caption settings. • When the program contains no closed caption, "--" displays in the closed caption information. • If the language code, e.g. "ENG", is not found on Digital TV programs, "--" will be shown. • Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1, Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may contain none or only some of these services at the discretion of the program provider. 15
