When thesignal from main channel is switched into No Signal during PIP ON, the TV is automaticallyturned into PIP OFF and the screen becomes blue screen. (When the main channel is in NoSignal, PIP doesn’t function.) 57Viewing Closed Caption InformationYour TV decodes and displays the closed-caption information that is broadcast along with sometelevision shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or translations intoother languages. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so pre-recorded video tapes can also deliver closed-caption information. Check for the closed captionsymbol ( ) on the tape’s package or your TV program-schedule.Closed Captions1Press the Menu button.

(These do not indicate theTV is malfunctioning.) Move the joystick down toselect the “Mode”. Move the joystick right or left tochoose “Caption” or “Text.” ln caption mode, cap-tions appear at the bot- tom of the screen, and theyusually cover only a small portion of the picture.
