Turning off the cable box isn't something I want to do when we're having weather alerts but I can't read them because the CCs are in the way.
CC is easy. There is a button on the remote marked Xfinity that you use to access almost everything from recordings to On Demand to Guide. There is a little gear icon there that takes you to Settings. Among the choices is Device Settings which includes the ability to toggle CC on or off. That's also where you can restart the box without having to unplug it.
