Teletext

A teletext service offers a range of text-based information, typically including news stories, sport articles, weather forecasts, and
TV schedules. Information is sent page by page. The TV can store up to 256 pages, but they can only be accessed once they
have been stored.

Fastext/TOPtext

The Fastext/TOPtext is teletext with a special directory.

coloured fields (red, green, yellow, and blue). These
fields lead directly to the pages shown within. The
coloured buttons on the remote control correspond to
the coloured fields. Press the appropriate coloured
button in order to activate the desired coloured field.
