(If included)
Press the key text to display the Summary
(page 100).
Calling up a page
Enter the 3 digits of the number (e.g. 150, 170) of the

the upper and the lower half of the screen page and
then switch back to full screen page display.
Videotext display
The blue key enables you to superpose a videotext
page on the standard TV picture and to switch back
to the standard TV picture.
Fastext
When videotext pages are broadcast as per the
Fastext standard, you can use the corresponding
colour keys to select one out of the 4 headings
displayed in the footer. Selection of a given heading
may have the effect to display further headings.
Certain programmes use videotext to broadcast
subtitles, as well as constantly updated news. These
pages can be found in the videotext summary. Once
you have found the page, the subtitle and/or news
will be superposed on the TV picture.
Choice of the character set table
If some characters of the videotext page are
erroneous, try to change the character set table. To do
so, press on the text key during 3 seconds at least,
then release it to switch from the Western Europe
character set table to the Eastern Europe one and
vice-versa.
Leave the videotext through exit.

You may want to programme an access code to the
TV set.

the window:
- 5 times for mono TV sets.

- Using the digital keys of the remote control, type
the 4 digits of your code.
As you enter each digit, the points (• • • •) are
replaced by Xs (XXXX).
- Confirm the code by entering it once more on the
second line.
If you make a mistake while confirming the code,
you’ll have to enter the 4 digits once more and
confirm them again.
If the confirmation is correct, the code is stored and
the window disappears.
Later on, when you’ll turn on the TV set through its
main switch, this code will be required and there will
be neither picture nor sound until it is entered.
If you make a mistake when typing the code, the
XXXX become red. You must turn off the TV set
through its main switch and turn it on again to be
able to enter the code one more time.
To change the access code:
- Press a number of times on the menu key to display
the window:
- 5 times for mono TV sets .
- 6 times for stereo TV sets.
- Through the digital keys of the remote control, type
the 4 digits of the present code.
The Xs (XXXX) are successively replaced by points
as each digit is keyed-in.
If you make a mistake when typing the code, the Xs
come up again and you must retype the 4 digits.
Once the present code entered, you can enter a new
one and confirm it.
If you type 0000 as the new code and confirm it, you
deactivate the lock.
