If you key in 801 and the coloured number beside it does not move for a while, then you know that no subtitles are available. Push button (14) and try again later. This is annoying, but it is the fault of the system; not the set. * If Teletext locks on page 801 with no subtitles being sent, key in another page (Page 100 is the main menu). Most pages are sent every 100. Menus are sent more often, and are quicker. * The Teletext display is adjusted by the Brightness and Contrast up/down buttons (3). The Teletext display is locked electronically. The Colour buttons have no effect. The TIME/TEXT button (11) shows a black & white digital clock in, the upper right corner of the screen when the set is in TV mode. This is a good way to tell if the station is sending Teletext. A black rectangle usually means a dead channel. * Sub-pages are a nuisance. Share quotes are given in sets of three pages per page, shown on the page as 1/3, 2/3 or 3/3. The easiest way to change sub-page is simply to wait until it does it by itself, the next time around. * The other way to select sub-pages is to press the TIME-TEXT button (11) and see "S * * * *"on the screen. If you want sub-page 3, key in 0003. If you have already keyed page 210 (say) then the red number at the bottom of the screen will show 210+ 0003, and will display sub-page 3 of page 210 when it comes around. This does not make it happen any sooner, but it will ignore page 210/1 and 210/2 the first and second time around. If you just enter 3 * * * it does not work. Teletext is an clumsy system, but it can be very useful and it is well worth the trouble to learn. Once you know the information you really need, it is a relatively simple matter to put those pages permanently in the colour memory buttons. Your important information is then just a button-press away ----- instantly available. 10

You will not be able to change channels unless you exit Teletext first. Press button (14)
first - then change channels.
The Seven Network sends Austext information in 800 pages. The main index for this is
page 100. When a number is keyed in black & white, the coloured Austext number beside
it counts up until it matches-and the page is then shown.
Austext ignores Page 801 unless subtitles are actually being sent. If you key in 801 and the
coloured number beside it does not move for a while, then you know that no subtitles are
available. Push button (14) and try again later. This is annoying, but it is the fault of
the system; not the set.
If Teletext locks on page 801 with no subtitles being sent, key in another page (Page 100
is the main menu). Most pages are sent every 100. Menus are sent more often, and are
quicker.
The Teletext display is adjusted by the Brightness and Contrast up/down buttons (3). The
Teletext display is locked electronically. The Colour buttons have no effect.
The TIME/TEXT button (11) shows a black & white digital clock in, the upper right corner
of the screen when the set is in TV mode. This is a good way to tell if the station is sending
Teletext. A black rectangle usually means a dead channel.
Sub-pages are a nuisance. Share quotes are given in sets of three pages per page, shown on
the page as 1/3, 2/3 or 3/3. The easiest way to change sub-page is simply to wait until it
does it by itself, the next time around.
The other way to select sub-pages is to press the TIME-TEXT button (11) and see "S
