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 automatically.
Press the MUTE key again to restore the sound, the cap-
tions will disappear. Quikcap displays program captions in
the Caption1 mode.
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.

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 commer-
cials. 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

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.
