Your TV/DVD is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV/DVD. Closed Captions are available on some TV programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the program provider. Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service available only on digital TV programs (also at the discretion of the service provider). It is a more flexible system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows 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 "_" 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 "C1" and "C2" services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program's picture.

These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed. • If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned, no captions will display on-screen. • If text is not available in your viewing area, a black rectangle may appear on-screen. If this happens, setting the "CC Setting" to "Off". • When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approx. 10 seconds. • If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode. • Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with Closed Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing. • When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may be seen but may interfere with Closed Captions. • Some Cable TV systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal. • If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may appear with strange characters or misspelled words.

G General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family, contains very PG little violence, physical, verbal or emotional. Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues. 14+ Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence is one of the dominant elements of the storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character.
