Do not spray insecticide liquid near the TV. Such chemicals may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed surfaces. PICTURE TUBE CLEANING Wipe the picture tube of the TV with a soft cloth. Before cleaning the picture tube, disconnect the power cord. Closed Caption Problem My TV is showing captions that are misspelled. My TV will not show the text in its entirety or there is a delay of what is being said. My captions are scrambled with white boxes on the TV screen. My program guide listed a TV show as being closed captioned but none of the captions were displayed. My prerecorded videotape does not show any captions. The tape box mentions it being closed captioned. My TV screen shows a black box on certain channels. Possible Remedy You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A prerecorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the normal time available for editing the captions. Captions that are delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are common for live broadcasts. Most captioning production companies can display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute. If a dialogue exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain up-to-date with the current TV screen dialogue. Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc. may cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear. Broadcasters may at times use a time compression process to speed up the actual program so that additional advertising time can be given. Since the decoder cannot read the compressed information, captions will be lost. The videotape was either an illegal copying or the tape duplicating company accidentally left out the captioning signals during the copying process. You are in the TEXT mode. Select CAPTION mode or CCD OFF.

Closed
Caption
Problem
Possible
Remedy
My
TV
is
showing
captions
that
are
misspelled.
You
are
watching
a
live
broadcast
and
spelling
errors
made
by
the
closed
captioning
production
company
may
pass
through
uncorrected.
A
prerecorded
program
will
not
show
any
misspelled
words
because
of
the
normal
time
available
for
editing
the
captions.
My
TV
will
not
show
the
text
in
its
entirety
or
there
is
a
delay
of
what
is
being
said.
Captions
that
are
delayed
a
few
seconds
behind
the
actual
dialogue
are
common
for
li
ve
broadcasts.
Most
captioning
production
companies
can
display
a
dialogue
to
a
maximum
of
220
words
per
minute.
If
a
dialogue
exceeds
that
rate,
selective
editing
is
used
to
insure
that
the
captions
remain
up-to-date
with
the
current
TV
screen
dialogue.
My
captions
are
scrambled
with
white
boxes
on
the
TV
screen.
Interference
caused
by
building,
power
lines,
thunderstorms,
etc.
may
cause
scrambled
or
incomplete
captions
to
appear.
My
program
guide
listed
a
TV
show
as
being
closed
captioned
but
none
of
the
captions
were
displayed.
Broadcasters
may
at
times
use
a
time
compression
process
to
speed
up
the
actual
program
so
that
additional
advertising
time
can
be
given.
Since
the
decoder
cannot
read
the
compressed
information,
captions
will
be
lost.
My
prerecorded
videotape
does
not
show
any
captions.
The
tape
box
mentions
it
being
closed
captioned.
The
videotape
was
either
an
illegal
copying
or
the
tape
duplicating
company
accidentally
left
out
the
captioning
signals
during
the
copying
process.
My
TV
screen
shows
a
black
box
on
certain
channels.
You
are
in
the
TEXT
mode.
Select
CAPTION
mode
or
CCD
OFF.
