Hi Simon,
Once the telly is on, press and hold the mute button for a couple of seconds.
This brings up the accessibility shortcuts menu. Voice guide is at the top of
the list, which you should land on by default. Press the ok button to go into
the menu. Here you have only 2 choices, off and on, off is at the top of the
list. Just arrow down once and press the ok button, and your telly should now
start talking. If it does not, check the mute button. At the top and bottom
of every menu there is a little audible tone to let you know that you are at
the end, the menus do not wrap around, so you can always verify where you are.
Good luck with the new telly. Once you get the hang of it, perhaps you might
let us know if it has bluetooth, if the browser and some of the other aps are
accessible, anso on, so that if folks decide to change to one of the accessible
models, there is some information on a few of them to hand, and everyone does
not have to just to plump for one.
Regards.
Jim.

Subject: [access-uk] turning on voice guide on new SAMSUNG UE43KU6670 tv?
hello all,
have just ordered one of the new SAMSUNG tv sets with voice guide, model
UE43KU6670, as I got a very good deal on it.
what I do need to know if possible is, is there an easy way for a totally blind
person to get the voice guide going from the start?
Simon
