Setting up Closed Caption
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. Not all the programs and
videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the symbol to ensure that captions will
be shown.
1. Press the MENU button on the remote control or the MENU button on the TV to bring up
the main menu.
2. Press the or button to select TV and then press ENTER to enter the submenu.
3. Press the or button to select Closed Caption.
4. Press the or button on the remote control or the VOL or VOL button on the
display to choose among the available choices for the selected option.
• Closed Caption may malfunction (white blocks, strange characters, etc.) if signal conditions are
poor or if there are problems at the broadcast source. This does not necessarily indicate a
problem with your display.
• If no TEXT broadcast is being received while viewing in the [TEXT] mode, the screen may
become dark and blank for some programs. Should this occur, switch the Closed Caption
mode to OFF.
• Close caption will disappear temporarily when the OSD menu is displayed on the screen.
Setting up V-CHIP
This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC
data. It prevents children from watching violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.
Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program:
the Movie Ratings and the TV Ratings. The Movie Ratings are restricted by age. TV Ratings are
restricted by age and content.
Since a TV program may use either the Movie Rratings or the TV Ratings, both should be
adjusted for complete control.
Movie Ratings

Example 2

and X.
