Parental Controls
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.
