OPERATIONS (Continued) 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. q 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). q You cannot access the menu when the "PROTECTED PROGRAM by ..." message appears. In this case, change to the unblocked channel, then press the MENU button. [MPAA RATING SET UP] 1 Press the MENU button so that the menu display appears on the TV screen. 2 Press the CH(annel) v or w button to point to "V-CHIP SET UP".

Check for local interference. Turn off with POWER button and then turn it on after about a minute. Adjust COLOR control. Adjust CONTRAST & BRIGHT control. Check batteries in Remote Control. Closed Caption Problem My TV is showing captions that are misspelled. 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. 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 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. 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 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.
