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, it will be ignored and you will have to press the TEXT button again when the download
is complete.
●
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.
