PARENTAL CONTROLS
To review or update your Parental Controls settings, press MENU,
select "Settings & Help", then "Parental Controls". You can
also access Parental Controls by pressing INFO, then selecting
"Parental", then "Parental Controls".
Parental Controls enable parents to place certain restrictions
on just who's watching what, and requires a passcode to view
restricted programming. Whether it's for mature content,
spending amounts, or even the number of hours of TV watching
allowed, you're always able to keep limitations where you want
them for the whole family. The system default is "unlocked" for
all categories.
LOCK NOW
After setting the restrictions you want (see below for options),
choose "Lock Now" from the left menu. You'll be asked to create
a passcode. This passcode will be your entry to unlocking and
adjusting limitations in the future.

UNLOCK NOW
When parental controls are locked, a message appears if you
try to tune to a restricted program explaining why the program
is blocked. To temporarily unlock a particular program select
"Unlock Now" and enter your passcode. Making multiple entries
aimed at guessing the passcode is discouraged by a time
delay; each invalid passcode entered lengthens the delay for
subsequent entry by one second.
For more unlock options, press MENU, select "Settings & Help"
then select "Parental Controls." Various options for removing
restrictions temporarily or permanently will appear. Select one
and enter your passcode. You can also unlock Parental Controls
by pressing INFO while watching TV. Select "Parental" then
"Unlock All" and enter your passcode.
NOTE: If you have Parental Controls set and temporarily unlocked, turning the receiver off will turn parental controls back on.
RATINGS LIMIT
The Ratings feature lets you set ratings limits for Movies, TV and unrated shows. From the left menu, select "Ratings Limits,"
then select either Movies or Other.
