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 Captions, look in your TV guide for the Closed Captions symbol (CC).

  • When activating the Closed Captioned Decoder, there will be a short delay before the Closed Captioned text appears on the screen.
  • Closed Captioned text is only displayed in locations where it is available.
  • 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 if TV 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.
