Accessing sub pages

When Teletext information exceeds one page, it may take some time for the automatic changing of the sub pages to reach the sub page you require. As each sub page is found its number is displayed at the top of the page so that you may select it; as more sub pages are picked up, the display at the top of the page changes, so that you are always offered the most recently transmitted selection of sub pages.

In Teletext operation, use the following procedure to access sub pages:

If the sub page you want to look at is not yet available, press the MENU button (to display special functions) followed by the Yellow button to view the TV picture whilst waiting for more sub pages to be found. The sub pages found will be displayed across the top of the screen.

When the sub page you are waiting for is available press the Yellow button to return to viewing the Teletext pages, then use the left and right cursor buttons to select the sub page of your choice.

The maximum number for sub page that can be entered is restricted to 79 by broadcasters.

Notes:

If you do not want to display the on screen selector keys on the TV picture whilst waiting for a sub page to be found, press the MENU button to clear the keys from the screen. Press again to redisplay the keys.

If you have cleared the special function keys from the screen and then used the left and right cursor buttons to select a sub page, whilst still viewing the TV picture, you must press the MENU button then the Yellow button to display the Teletext page again.

If the top of the page indicates that sub pages are being transmitted but the page displayed never changes, then the ‘sub page number’ is there to show the page contents have been updated, there are no sub pages.
