Teletext (Analogue TV Mode)

Teletext is a free service broadcast by some TV stations which gives up-to-the-minute information on news, weather, television 
programmes, share prices and many other topics. Using the Teletext control buttons you can view pages of information that are 
listed in the teletext index.

To Turn on Teletext Function

Make sure the TV channel you are watching transmits 
teletext. If not “No Teletext” sign will be shown on the screen.

 

In ATV mode, press the TEXT button to enter Teletext mode. Press the INDEX button to display the index page.

Press the TEXT button twice to exit and the TV will return to the channel you were watching.

To select a page of text

Find the number of the page in the index and enter it using the 0-9 buttons. The number of the page will appear on the top left 
corner of the screen.
The page counter will search for your page. When it finds it, the page will be displayed.
To move to the next page of text, press the   button.
To move to the previous page, press the   button.
To return to the index page, enter the “100” by using the 0-9 buttons or press the INDEX button.

Mix

To view a page of the text whilst watching a TV programme, press the TEXT button twice. The text will be superimposed over the 
TV programme.

Page search while watching TV

Press the CANCEL button while watching TV with teletext, enter the page number you want by using the 0-9 buttons.
The top line of the text page will appear while the text searches for your page. When the page is found the number will remain in 
the top left hand corner of the screen.

Double height text

If you have difficulty reading the text on the TV you can double the height of the text.
Press the SIZE button. The top half of the page will be displayed in double height text.
Press the SIZE button again. The bottom half of the page will be displayed in double height text.
Press the SIZE button again to return to the full page.

Page HOLD

If the page of text you have selected contains subpages, these subpages will automatically be displayed in order with a delay to 
allow you to read the page.
Press the     buttons to scroll through the subpages.

Alternative

Press the SUBPAGE button, then enter a 4-digit page number.

To Reveal Information

Press the REVEAL button to reveal concealed information (quiz answers etc.).
Press the REVEAL button again to conceal the information again.

Fasttext

At the bottom of the teletext screen is a row of subject headings in red, green, yellow and blue.
The remote control has a row of colour buttons corresponding to the row of coloured subjects on the screen.
Pressing one of the colour buttons will take you directly to the page corresponding to the subject heading.
