Subtitles display dialog and sound effects as a textual overlay on your Sanyo television screen. This feature was implemented to assist hearing-impaired viewers, but it may also prove helpful to TV viewers when the Sanyo is muted or positioned in a crowded environment, such as a sports bar. If you do not require subtitles and they’re enabled on your television, you can turn them off using the remote control or the Sanyo menu settings.
