If the OSD status display FAVOURITE is at any time lost (timeout is 3-4
seconds after any previous use of the CURSOR keys), then a single touch
of the ZOOM button (A15) is necessary before adjustment can be resumed.

FREEZE picture

This TV scans at 100Hz. It has an additional FREEZE picture function that holds the current image on the screen (similar in effect to
the “pause” function of a video player). To freeze the image at any time, just press on the yellow FREEZE button (A26). This
function is available with any signal source (from aerial, video player, DVD).
The display will indicate that the FREEZE function is activated. A second press on the same button (A26), entry to the MAIN menu
(A19), or change of program will cancel the FREEZE function.

10

CHILD LOCK

This function only allows the TV to be turned on using the remote
control. Once the user has set this CHILD LOCK to ON or OFF, it will
remain in this condition until the user changes it again.

WAKE UP

It is necessary to have set the clock (either manually or
automatically) in order to be able to use this function. If the clock is
not set (--:-- is shown) then the WAKE TIME and WAKE PROG. will
not be selectable.
The default setting for WAKE TIME is in the "OFF" position. After
each use (the TV turns on according to the previous setting) the
WAKE TIME will be returned to the "OFF" position, conserving
always the last time setting entered ready for re-use.
This function also operate, when “CHILD LOCK ON” is selected.

CLOCK SETTING

The TV will automatically attempt to set the clock when powered on
(with the MAIN POWER button). It takes as reference information
embedded in the teletext signal of the channel defined by CLOCK
PROG. Therefore, automatic clock setting is only possible if teletext
is available on this channel.
If no time is captured automatically (the clock will show - - : - -), then
the TV will try again to set the clock whenever turning on from

standby mode.
Alternatively, the user can enter the time manually using the CLOCK
function. However, if this is done the clock will not be periodically
updated as would happen if the time is set automatically. We
recommend that the user choose (if available) a CLOCK PROG
which allows the time to be updated automatically.

DEFAULT ZOOM CONTROL

If the ZOOM control is set to AUTO (A15, see page 9, FORMAT
SELECTION), then the picture format presented is controlled by the
received picture format signalling data embedded in the
transmission. In the absence of this signalling data (as can often be
the case) a default format must be used. This default format can be
selected by the ZOOM AUTO function.

LANGUAGE

This can be changed at any time by the user in the LANGUAGE
menu (accessed via the FEATURES menu).

The sub-menus referred to here are: PICTURE, SOUND, INSTALL, FEATURES.

- Adjust the function using :

TELETEXT FORMAT PICTURE & SOUND CONTROL

WATCHING TV WHILE PAGE SEARCHING

The CANCEL function can be used to make the teletext page transparent, thus revealing
the TV picture:

- To enter cancel mode, press the CANCEL button (A8) while in teletext mode. The TV
program will reappear on the screen, while only the teletext page number remains at the
top and left corner of the screen.

- You can enter a new page number in this mode only by using the remote control
NUMBER 0...9 buttons (A3), or with the INDEX button (A18).

- If a page has been requested, but has not yet arrived, "???" flashing characters will be
displayed until the page arrives. Otherwise, the same characters will be displayed
without flashing until the next arrival of the page in the transmission cycle. Once arrived
the page number will be displayed.

- The teletext page can be made visible again by pressing the CANCEL button (A8).

- It should be noted that the TV program cannot be changed while in cancel mode.

WATCHING TV WITH TELETEXT SUBTITLES

If the actual teletext page is a news flash or subtitle page, then most of the TV picture becomes visible. In this situation the ZOOM
format chosen in TV mode is reactivated, where possible.

This is particularly useful while watching a program with the teletext subtitles. Only formats which do not allow the full height of the
TV picture to be seen are not possible in teletext mode, as these would not allow all teletext lines to be displayed.
Therefore only the formats ZOOM 14:9 AND ZOOM 16:9 (available with wide screen TV models) cannot be preserved with teletext
subtitles. In this situation the default format FULL SCREEN (equal to 16:9) will be used.

For FAVOURITE format, FULL SCREEN will also be used only if the vertical size chosen is greater than 100%.
Note : A 16:9 or 14:9 format can be realised by keeping a 100% vertical size, but reducing the horizontal size, thus allowing teletext
subtitles to be used over a picture that has no distortion.

Doubling character height

Repeatedly pressing the HEIGHT button (A23) doubles the character height in the following
order:
Upper half of the page (UP) > Lower half of the page (DOWN) > Return to normal height.
If the page is in UP or DOWN mode, then normal size is automatically set if :

- A new page request is made (e.g. CYAN, INDEX or PAGE UP/DOWN).

- CANCEL mode (A8) function is used.

- VOLUME menu is activated the with the MENU button (A19).

Note : The menu at the base of the screen is always visible

Volume and brightness control in teletext mode

VOLUME ( and sound MUTE), BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST controls are all possible in teletext. The BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST
controls are dedicated to the teletext display.

- Access the VOLUME control by pressing the MENU button (A19) in teletext mode. A barograph will appear in the lower part of the screen
(as in TV mode). If MUTE is active a mute icon is also shown.

- A second press on the MENU button (A19) will access the BRIGHTNESS control, and a third press the CONTRAST control.

- The active bargraph will timeout after 3-4 seconds (as in TV mode VOLUME control) or by pressing on the MENU button (A19) a fourth
time (after CONTRAST control)

- Each control can be adjusted by using the remote control CURSOR RIGHT (A20) / LEFT (A7) buttons.

- Mute can always be activated by pressing the SOUND MUTE button (A2).

- Any change to the VOLUME level will cancel the SOUND MUTE.
