How to use
In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of digital equipment, some on screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.
For example:
When “select” or “go” is displayed
When “ ”, “ ”, “ ”, “ ” symbol is displayed
When “back key” is displayed |
RETURN |
|
When the key words are displayed on colour bar red green yellow blue
When options with numbers are displayed
When “i” is displayed (information)

To return to TV
Note
As soon as you switch to a digital channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function. This means that when switching to a digital channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.
While navigating digital teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example “Loading”) to let you know that this is happening.
