As soon as you switch to a digital channel with links to a digital text
service, software is downloaded in the background over air to enable the
teletext function. This means that when switching to a digital channel, you
should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing TEXT - this will
allow the software to be downloaded. If you press TEXT before download
is complete, it will be ignored and you will have to press TEXT again when
the download is complete.
