dropouts and other grammatical
shortcuts in order to keep pace
with the on-screen action. These
type factors vary upon the source
of the captioned text material and
do not indicate a need for service
on the part of the TV.
NOTE: Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast
with Closed Caption (CC) information included. Neither are all Closed Caption
modes (CAPTION I-4; or TEXT I-4) necessarily being used by a broadcast station
during the transmission of a closed caption program. Usually "CAPTION I" is the
most used mode to view captioned material. Refer to your area's TV program list-
ings for the stations and times of Closed Caption shows.
