Important: If you forget your PIN, the only way to recover is to perform a factory reset
operation, as explained in "Factory reset everything" on page 65. Be sure to write it down in a
safe place just in case.
Blocking Movie Store, TV Store, and News (US TV models only)
One of the parental control options is to completely hide the entertainment options that are available
directly on the Home screen menu of Roku TVs manufactured for sale in the United States. (The Movie
Store, TV Store, and News options are not available on Roku TVs manufactured for sale in Canada).
To hide Home screen entertainment options:
1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter your PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, highlight Home screen and then select or clear either of these
options:
Hide "Movie Store and TV Store" – Removes the Movie Store and TV Store options from
•
the Home screen menu.
Hide "News" – Removes the News option from the Home screen menu.
•
Tip: To use either of these options after you've hidden them, you must return to this screen and
remove the check mark from the corresponding Hide command.
Blocking Broadcast TV shows
For broadcast TV, parental controls use information embedded in the broadcast signal to determine
whether to allow a program to be displayed. Parents can configure parental controls to block broadcast
TV programs that meet or exceed a specific rating, so they cannot be viewed or heard unless the correct
parental control PIN is entered.
Enabling parental control of TV shows
The first step in blocking TV shows is to enable parental control of TV shows.
This setting is provided separately to make it easier for you to turn parental control of TV shows on and
off without disturbing their settings. For example, your kids are going to summer camp for two weeks,
and while they are gone, you don't want to have to deal with unblocking shows that you want to watch
by entering your PIN. All you need to do is clear Enable parental controls, and all TV shows are
unblocked. When the kids return, select Enable parental controls again, and all of your parental control
settings are restored in a single operation.
To enable parental control of TV shows:
1. In the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter your PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Parental control of TV shows.
