TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS

Press the CLOSED CAPTION button on the remote

control to switch between normal TV and the two Closed

Caption Modes (Captions and Full Screen Text).

Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text

on the screen in English or another language (depend-

ing on the setting of the Closed Captions CH. 1 or 2).

Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted

on Captions Channel 1 and Closed Captions in other

languages are transmitted on Captions Channel 2.

Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill the

screen with a programming schedule or other information.

After selecting a Closed Caption Mode, it will stay in

effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed.

If the Captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a

break in the signal, the Captions will reappear when the

signal is received again.

If the channels are changed, the Captions will be delayed

approximately 10 seconds.

The Captions will appear in places on the screen where

they will least interfere with the picture, usually on the

bottom of the screen. News programs will usually show

three-line Closed Captions which scroll onto the screen.

Most other shows provide two or three lined Captions

placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer

can follow the dialogue.

Words in italics or underlined describe titles words in

foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words

that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.

For television programs broadcasting with Closed Cap-

tions look in your TV guide for the Closed Captions

symbol (CC).

•When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 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 not be seen or may

interfere with Closed Captions.

• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.

• If using an indoor antenna or ifTV reception is very poor the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or

may appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception

or use an outdoor antenna.

RECEPTION DISTURBANCES

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF

antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results.The most common types of television interfer-

ence are shown below, If one of these symptoms appear when theTV/VCR is connected to a CableTV system,

the disturbance may be caused by the local CableTV company broadcast.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or

drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,

neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair

dryers.

GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the

direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other large

objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the

reception.

SNOW

If the TV/VCR is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception

area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.

If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external

antenna may be necessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving

ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a loss of

contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of the antenna

or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or

BRIGHTNESS settings.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV/VCR from the AC power sources before cleaning.

The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use

caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING

VIDEO HEAD CLOGGING

The video heads are the means by which the TV/VCR reads the picture from

the tape during playback. In the unlikely event that the heads become dirty

enough to be clogged, no picture will be played back. This can easily be deter-

mined if, during playback of a known good tape, there is good sound, but no

picture (picture is extremely snowy). If this is the case, use a high quality head

cleaning system or have them cleaned professionally.

VIDEO HEAD CLEANING

Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting

dirty and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If the heads require cleaning, use a equivalent high

quality chemical non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or have them cleaned professionally.If playing a head

cleaning tape in the VCR once does not improve the picture, play it several times before requesting service.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE TOP COVER.

NOTES: ° Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.

• To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.
