■ What is Teletext?
Teletext is an information service organised like a magazine, which
is provided by some TV stations in addition to regular television
broadcasting. Your LCD TV set receives special Teletext signals
broadcast by a TV station, processes the information and displays
it graphically on the screen. News, weather and sports information,
stock exchange prices, programme reviews and closed captioning
for people hard of hearing are among the many services available
through Teletext.

Teletext is turned on/off with (Teletext) on the remote control.
You can operate your LCD TV set in Teletext mode directly by
inputting commands with the remote control.
