DTT Teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext. When you switch to a DTT teletext service, the images you see can
contain graphics and text, laid out and controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster. In all cases, it is possible to navigate
the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of DTT
equipment, some on---screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons. For example:
D
For the on---screen command ‘
select
’ or ‘
go
’, use the
OK
button.
D
If you see the
A " B Y
symbols, use the appropriate cursor keys.
D
If you see a line of key words displayed in red, green, yellow and blue, use the coloured multifunction buttons to operate the
functions.
D
The
TEXT
button should allow you to exit the teletext system. Alternatively, press the
CHANNEL UP / DOWN
buttons to select
another channel.

While navigating DTT teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads.
There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example “Loading”) to let you know that this is happening.
