USING TELETEXT (IF PROVIDED)

Many TV channels broadcast information via teletext. Each channel
that broadcasts teletext transmits a page with information on how to
use its teletext system. Look for the teletext page with the main index
(usually p. 100).
Depending on the TV channel, teletext is transmitted in different sys-
tems. The colours used in the options line correspond with the colour
keys of your remote control.

About Teletext

Easy Text considerably reduces the waiting time (on condition that
the teletext broadcast of the particular TV channel is received for at
least half a minute) by :
a direct selection of previous and following pages that are in trans-
mission and of the pages referred to in the options line at the bot-
tom of the teletext screen;
a habit watcher list : frequently used pages are put automatically
in a list of preferred pages so that they are immediately available;
the precapturing of the page numbers referred to in the displayed
page; and
the precapturing of all the subpages.

Switching Teletext on and off

1Press the bbkey to switch the teletext on.
The main index page appears on the screen together with
two information lines at the top and one option line at the

3Press the bbkey once again to switch the teletext off.
