What is Teletext?
Teletext broadcasts pages of information and entertainment to specially equipped television sets. Your TV receives Teletext signals broadcast by a TV network, and decodes them into graphical format for viewing. News, weather and sports information, stock exchange prices and programme previews are among the many services available.
Turning on and off Teletext
1.Select a TV channel or external source providing a Teletext programme.
2.Press m to display Teletext.
•Many stations use the TOP operating system, while some use FLOF (e.g. CNN). Your TV supports both these systems. The pages are divided into topic groups and topics.
•If you select a programme with no Teletext signal, Teletext will not be displayed.
•The same message displays during other modes if no Teletext signal is available.
Using the MHEG5 application (UK only)
Some services bring you programmes with the MHEG (Multimedia and Hypermedia Expert Group) application encoded, letting you experience DTV interactively.
When provided, the MHEG5 application will start when you press the m button.
