    Captions
    Captions on Digital Channels
    The TV can decode captions from the ANT input only.  
    Broadcasters can send up to six different captioning 
    selections or can send analog captions for a program 
    that originated in analog format.  A TV station may broad-
    cast only one or two types of captions or none at all.
    Captions on Analog Channels
    The TV can decode captions from the ANT input and 
    the composite VIDEO jacks.  Broadcasters can send 
    either standard closed captions or text service.  Standard 
    closed captions follow the dialogue of the program and 
    display in a small section of the screen.  Text-service closed 
    captions often contain information such as weather or 
    news and cover a large portion of the screen.
    I M P O R TA N T
    •	Analog text-service options display a large 
    black or gray box on the screen when no 
    caption signal is being broadcast.
    •	 The	content	of	captions	is	determined	by	the	
    broadcaster.  If captions show strange char-
    acters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not 
    a malfunction of the TV.
    •	Closed-caption signals are not available through 
    HDMI or component jacks.  See the menus for 
    devices connected to these inputs for closed-
    caption decoding.

    alternate rating system, the TV defaults to the most 
    restrictive setting if the Lock menu > Other Lock 
    option is set to On.  Use this menu to change the 
    allowed rating if you are unable to watch a program 
    rated with an alternate system.
