• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings been adjusted properly? Follow the description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR” on page 22 to try to adjust them properly. • Videotaping teletext is not recommended because it may not record correctly. • When a white and bright still image (such as a white dress) is displayed on the screen, the white part may look as if it were coloured.
