Closed Captions:
• This LCD TV set is equipped with an internal Closed
Caption decoder. “Closed Caption” is a system which allows
conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and
home videos to be viewed as captions on the TV screen (see
the illustration).
• Not all programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please
look for the “ ” symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
• The Closed Caption broadcasts can be viewed in two modes:
CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, four channels are
available: CH1, CH2, CH3 and CH4.
The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and
commentaries of TV dramas and news programs while allowing
a clear view of the picture.
The TEXT mode displays various information over the picture
(such as TV program schedules
and weather forecasts, etc.) that is
independent of the TV programs.

violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.
• Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of
America) rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and
content.
• Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines, both should be adjusted for complete control.

Canadian Rating Systems

• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programing.
• 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.
