modify any of these settings without first entering the four-digit system
password.

system password.

Enter the password a second time to confirm it.
For the changes to take effect, you must exit out of the menu system.
Unlocking the System
When the system is unlocked, the channel, spending, viewing, and
ratings limits that you set are no longer in effect. To unlock:
1.
Point to Unlock System in the Profiles menu and press OK.

system.
When you attempt to access a channel that is blocked by one or more
limits and the system is locked, you will be asked to unlock the system by
entering the four-digit system password.
If you enter the password to override a limit, all limits are unlocked until
you turn off the receiver. When you turn on the receiver again, the
system will be locked, and the Family profile channel list will be selected.

can select the lock icon in the channel banner.
