About the Teletext function
Some broadcasts systems ensure a Teletext
service* in which the complete programmes and
their data (title, date, channel, recording start time
etc.) are stored day by day. When recording a
programme, the recorder automatically takes the
programme name from the Teletext pages and
stores it as the title name. For detail, see “TV
Guide Page” on page 82.
Note that the Teletext information will not appear
on your TV screen. To view the Teletext
information on your TV screen, press t TV/
VIDEO on the remote to switch the input source to
your TV (page 18).
* This feature mostly likely cannot be used because it
requires a service that is provided in limited areas only.
z Hint
If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can
turn off the TV. When using a decoder, make sure to
leave it on.
b Notes
• After pressing z REC, it may take a short while to start
recording.
• You cannot change the recording mode while
recording or during recording pause.
• If there is a power failure, the programme you are
recording may be erased.
