- Scroll to the Subtitles option
- Select the desired language option

2Scroll across to the Subtitles option
Use the Right/Fast Forward button (which is directly next to the Select button in the centre of the remote) to move to the subtitles option.
Step
3Select your desired subtitle language
All available languages will appear here, so in this case subtitles were only available in English.
Use the Down button on your remote to choose the desired subtitle language and, once your choice is highlighted, press the Select button.
Troubleshooting
To turn off subtitles you simply need to follow the above steps again, however rather than choosing a language, just select Off.
Yes, you can use voice control to enable subtitles on your Sky Glass TV, simply by pressing and holding the microphone button, as shown below, and saying “hello Sky, turn on subtitles”.
