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 Teletext 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. After switching on the teletext, up to 1000 pages are stored for fast access.

NOTE

Teletext will not work if the selected signal type is RGB.
