Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption
decoder, it allows you to view conversations, narration
and sound effects as subtitles on your W. 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 provide0. It is a more flexible
system than the original Closed Caption system,
because it allows for 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 "OO1" and "0C2" services display
subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the
program's picture.
In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2"
services display text that is unrelated to the program

V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over
broadcasts accessed by their children, It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing while
blocking ones judged not suitable, It does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature in your TV.
"V-Chip" and "Status" will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret
number. (See page 40 for Secret number setting for parental control.)
*The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.
*The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate
television shows from their children.
*Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as
watched on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

Canadian Rating Systems
• The 77/rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.
• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into
consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.
• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
Canadian French ratings.
