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 details, see "TV
Guide Page" (page 92).
Note that the Teletext information will not appear
on your TV screen. To view the Teletext
information on your TV screen, press TV/DVD on
the remote to switch the input source to your TV.

z Hint
If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can
