This is used to switch on or off teletext display. The summary appears with a list of items that can be accessed. Each item has a corresponding 3 digit page number. If channel selected does not broadcast teletext, the indication 100 will be displayed and the screen will remain blank. Proceed to exit teletext and select another channel.

Enter the number of the page required using the 0 to 9 keys or P –/+keys. Example: page 120, enter 120. The number is displayed at the top left corner of the screen. When the page is located, the counter stops searching. Repeat this operation to view another page. If the counter continues to search, this means that the page is not transmitted. Select another number.

Coloured areas are displayed at the bottom of the screen. The 4 colour keys are used to access the items or corresponding pages. The coloured areas flash when the item or the page is not yet available.

This returns you to the contents page (usually page 100).

Certain pages contain sub-pages which are automatically displayed successively. This key is used to stop or resume sub-page display. The indication appears top left.

You can use the Í Æ keys to select previous or next sub-page (applicable to 37”/42” TVs only).
