Digital Teletext (MHEG)

Available in U.K. only

Digital teletext services differ greatly from
analogue teletext. When you switch to a
Digital teletext service, the images you see
contain graphics and text which are laid out
and controlled in a manner decided by the
broadcaster. Some digital channels, which you
select like any other channel, offer dedicated
teletext services . Some digital channels also
offer information on the programme being
broadcast (a message or an instruction may
appear on the screen).

&

To use the digital teletext, follow the

instructions on screen.

é

Depending on the service, you can be

asked to use the Н Ж О п (cursor keys),

(coloured keys),

(Teletext On/Off key) and sometimes

the

numerical keys.

Note : If no coloured key links are not
available in the Digital Teletext to allow you
to exit teletext mode, use the

key on

the remote control to exit teletext mode.

When you have finished watching teletext,

select a different channel with P /+ keys or

follow the on screen instructions to return

to picture.

When you switch to a digital channel with links
to a telext service, software is downloaded in
the background to enable the teletext function.
You should wait for a while before you press
the

key to allow the software download

to complete. If you press the

key before

the download is complete, there will be a short
delay before the teletext screen is displayed.

While navigating the digital teletext, there is a
short delay while the page downloads. A prompt
or message is often seen on the page to let you
know the progress.
