CLOSED CAPTION SYSTEM You can view specially labeled (cc) TV programs, movies, news, pre-recorded tapes with either a dialogue caption or text display. CAPTION mode: By choosing the caption mode, you can watch dramas, movies and news while captioning the dialogues and the contents of news. TEXT mode: By choosing the text mode, you can watch half screen text information if you want. 1-2: You may get these captions or text information by selecting either "1" or "2". Caption "2" is used, usually for a second language if available. NOTE: Not all programs are broadcast with closed captions. Your television is designed to provide error free closed captions from high quality antenna, cable and VCR signals. Conversely, poor quality signals are likely to result in caption errors or no captions at all. Common signal conditions which may cause captions errors are listed below: • Automobile ignition noise • Electric motor brush noise • Weak snowy reception on TV screen • Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts or airplane flutter. • Playback of poorly recorded or worn VCR tapes. NOTE: If the TV/VCR displays a black box on the TV screen, this means that the TV/VCR is set to the TEXT mode. To clear screen, select [CAPTION1], [CAPTION2] or [OFF].

V-CHIP SET UP V-CHIP enables parents to prevent their children from watching inappropriate material on TV. V-CHIP reads the ratings for programming (except for news and sports programs, unedited movies on premium cable channels, and Emergency Broadcast System signals), then denies access to programming if the program's rating meets the limitations you select. In this case, "PROTECTED PROGRAM by ..." message appears on the TV screen. To block ratings, follow the steps below. • Programming may be rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) or according to the Television Parental Guidelines. In order to block any inappropriate programming, set your limits in both places (MPAA RATING and TV RATING).
