Parental Controls

Troubleshooting

Parental controls enable you to control whether the members of your household can view certain kinds of

broadcast TV programs. When a program or feature is blocked, you can unblock it by entering a parental

control PIN that only you know.

Note:

Parental controls block content from the TV tuner and from streaming options, if any, on the Home screen

menu. Parental controls do not block content on other TV inputs or content from streaming channels you add

to your TV.

Creating a parental control PIN

To create a new parental control PIN, from the Home screen menu navigate to

Settings > Parental controls

.

The screen displays a numeric keypad. Use the purple directional pad to enter a four-digit code, and then

press

OK

. Then repeat the process to enter the same PIN again, just to make sure you correctly entered the

PIN you want to use.

Important:

If you forget your parental control PIN, the only way to recover is to perform a factory reset operation.
