Teletext access buttons
(Select models only)
Teletext is broadcast free of charge; your TV set
must be equipped with a Teletext decoder. Access
to Teletext and all of its functions is available
through your TV and the Media Center remote
control.
The following information should describe the
operation of Teletext for most TV sets. Functions
vary between manufacturers and models. For
specific information about your particular TV
model, see the documentation that came with
your TV.
Teletext consists of pages of free information such as
news, sports, financial information, recipes,
entertainment listings, holiday advertisements, music
and TV reviews, backup information for certain TV
programs, and themes for television sets capable of
viewing these pages.
The actual Teletext pages are broadcast in a hidden
part of the television signal and decoded by the
television. Teletext pages are accessed by a three-
figure number; on most channels, the front page is
on page 100.
The Teletext access buttons listed below open the
main Teletext pages. Each Teletext page has a
unique three-digit page number. All pages can be
accessed by typing the number using the numeric
keypad on the remote control.
Use the Up arrows and Down arrows to navigate
through the different Teletext pages.
