What is teletext?
Teletext broadcasts pages of information and
entertainment to specially equipped TV. 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.

teletext programme.

3Press m again to display the teletext on the right
screen and the normal image on the left screen.
• 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 2,000 pages are stored for fast access.
• If you select a programme with no teletext signal, “No Teletext
available” displays.
