Newsflash and subtitle pa

These special pages are displayed as a small box of

text on the television picture. The page numbers are

given by the service provider (for example, on BBC1

Ceefax, page 888 gives you subtitles).

Pag e headings (the red,green,

blue buttons)

The four coloured page headings at the bottom of the

screen are set by teletext. To see the page

corresponding to one of these headings, press the

matching coloured button. Each time you change the

page it will take a little time for the new page to be

found and displayed.

Sub-pa ges

Some teletext pages contain too much information to

fit on the screen at once, so they are split up into

sub-pages and shown in order. The service provider

usually displays a label in the top right-hand corner of

the screen to show which sub-page is being shown.

For example '3/6' shows that you are looking at the

third of six pages.

The scart socket

The scart socket at the back of the television is a convenient way of connecting audio and video (AV) signals to

and from the television. As the signals are in a more basic form than the signal at the aerial socket, they are less

likely to be affected by interference and other things that can reduce picture quality.

To select the scart channel

Press the 0 button on the remote control. 'AV' will be displayed for a few

seconds and you will see the picture from any equipment that is connected to

the scart socket (if that equipment is switched on). If there is no signal at the

scart socket, the screen will remain dark.

The table below describes the facilities supported by the AV channel on your television.

Video and RGB

The sharpest and clearest possible picture is reproduced from separate red, green and blue signals (RGB). Only

certain computers and high-quality digital equipment produce this form of signal. Most equipment produces a

'composite video, blanking and synchronisation' signal (CVBS), usually just called 'video'.

Automatic AV mode or video switching

Some equipment provides an automatic switching signal, so that the video recorder (and so on) 'tells' the

television to reproduce its video and audio signals. For example, if you play a video tape, you will not have to

press the '0' button on your remote control, as the television will automatically switch to the video channel.

Equipment that can be connected to the television

You can usually connect video recorders, camcorders, satellite receivers, PAL video disc players, audio amplifiers

and video games to this television, but we cannot guarantee that all combinations of equipment will work. You

can buy many different cables to connect these things.
