temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV  
is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses.  
This can make the picture appear distorted or the color  
appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7  
hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.  
24) Always operate this equipment from  
a 120V AC, 60 Hz power source only.  
25) Always make sure the antenna system is properly  
grounded to provide adequate protection against  
voltage surges and built-up static charges (see Section  
810 of the National Electric Code).  
31) For added protection of your TV from lightning and  
power surges, always unplug the power cord and  
disconnect the antenna from the TV if you leave the TV  
unattended or unused for long periods of time.

the batteries on a yearly basis or when the remote operation  
becomes erratic.  
Caution:  
Never throw batteries into a fire.  
Note :  
Be sure to use AAA size batteries.  
Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.  
Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects  
of battery disposal.

Do not mix different battery types or combine used  
batteries with new ones.  
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the  
operating range becomes reduced, replace both  
batteries with new ones.  
If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the

CLOSED CAPTION  
WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?  
Text: When available, the Text mode will fill part of the screen with a  
This television has the capability to decode and display closed  
captioned television programs. When available, closed captioning will  
display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will  
translate and display text in another language.  
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.  
For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look in your  
TV guide for the closed captions symbol (CC).  
TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS  
Press CAP/TEXT on the remote control to switch between normal TV  
and the two closed caption modes (captions and half-screen Text).  
Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the screen in  
English or another language (depending on the setting of Closed  
Captions 1/2). Generally, closed captions in English are transmitted  
on captions channel 1 and closed captions in other languages are  
transmitted on captions channel 2.  
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 that scroll onto  
the screen. Most other shows provide two- or three-line 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.  
NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE TUBE  
Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended  
periods of time. Fixed (non-moving) images (such as closed captions)  
can become permanently ingrained in the picture tube. This type of  
damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.  
• 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.
