Closed captioning is when text is displayed on a television screen, video screen or any other visual display. It is an aid for the deaf or for those with poor hearing, but isn't restricted to this usage obviously. Effectively they transcript the audio and non-speech elements of the program. In the UK and other countries, closed captions are known as subtitles.
Remote controls all feature a Menu button of some sort. For some it is called 'Menu' and for some it's called 'Setup'. This function will bring up the TVs menu and navigate to a setting page. From here you can direct yourself to activate closed captions. A lot of remotes actually have a closed caption or subtitles button on it. If you're unsure which this is then you should consult the instruction manual. If you have lost your manual then a quick Google search will direct you to the manufacturer's website where an e-copy is available for free download.
In the same manner, going to 'Menu' or 'Setup' or hitting the closed caption button again will turn the function off. On some remotes the section for closed caption is named sub titles. Here you should select english1. To access it though, you would need to use 'Enter', not 'Menu', and use 0 to toggle through the CC menu.
In some cases your remote or TV won't have arrow buttons to navigate. If this is the case, the volume up and down buttons should act in this capacity.
