CLOSED-CAPTIONING
Captioning is text information transmitted along with the picture and sound so it can be displayed on the TV screen. Because
different types of captions can be transmitted with the TV signal, separate captioning modes are provided. The captioning
modes recognized by this model are: Caption1, Caption2, Text1, and Text2. Local broadcasters decide which caption signals
to transmit.
CAPTION1: Main mode used for
program captioning (words match the
program you are watching). These cap-
tions are generally one or two lines.
TEXT2: An alternative mode used to display large amounts
of text (same as Text1).
QUIKCAP: Allows captions to toggle on and off with
the Mute function. Press the MUTE key on the remote
control to block the TV sound; the captions display auto-
matically. Press the MUTE key again to restore the
sound, the captions will disappear. Quikcap displays
program captions in the Caption1 mode.
TWO OUTS AND TWO STRIKES
CAPTION2: An alternative mode for
program captioning. Caption2 may be
used by the broadcaster to provide cap-
tions in another language, such as,
Spanish or French.

ABOUT MPAA AND TV PARENTAL GUIDELINES
ming contains any or all of these conditions, these letters
become part of the icon that is displayed on the TV screen.
MPAA and TV Parental Guidelines are rating systems that
provide advance cautionary information to parents about
the content of movie and television programming.
A rating icon will generally appear in the upper left hand
corner of the TV screen for about fifteen seconds at
the beginning of a program and should be repeated
at the beginning of the second hour of a long
program. It may also appear when returning from
commercials. There may be other instances when these icons
will be displayed as well. Parents are encouraged to become
familiar with these icons and their meanings.
The V-Guide system contain both age-based and content-
based settings. This gives parents discretionary ways of
choosing appropriate material for their children to view.
Content ratings are represented by the initials D (Sugges-
tive Dialog), L (Adult Language), S (Sexual Situations), V
(Violence), and FV (Fantasy Violence). When program-
V-GUIDE OPERATION
Use this feature to supervise television viewing for young children. This television can be set to automatically block
programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view, including: suggestive dialog, adult language,
sexual situations, violence, and fantasy violence.
The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends upon several conditions: 1)
The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the
rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be properly setup to decode the signal.

CARE AND CLEANING
The surface of the cabinet can be damaged if not properly maintained. Many
common household aerosol sprays, cleaning agents, solvents, and polishes will
cause permanent damage to the fine surface.
1. Unplug the power cord before cleaning the television.
2. Clean the screen and cabinet with a soft dry cloth.
Note: Never spray liquids on the screen because it can run down and drip onto the
chassis. This may cause component failure not covered under Warranty.
This symbol on the nameplate means the product is Listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories Inc.
It is designed and manufactured to meet rigid U.L. safety standards against risk of fire,
