Parental Control Menu; Channel Block; Front Panel Lockout - RCA MR25515YX2AY1 User Manual

PARENTAL CONTROLS MENU
The Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV so that
children cannot see certain programs, channels, or use the front panel
controls.
The first three choices in the Parental Controls menu involve a chip
inside your TV (called V-Chip). These three V-Chip functions will not
work on your TV because the features depend upon special additions to
the broadcast signal, not yet available in your market. Please disregard
them. However, you can use the remaining features in the Parental
Controls menu: Channel Block, Front Panel Block and Lock Parental
Controls
Channel Block
Selecting this option lets you decide what channels can be viewed.
View All channels are available.
BlockThe front panel CH (channel) buttons will tune only to
channels that you have marked as View. The remote will still tune
to the blocked channel if you use the digits to access the channel.
Don't forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of
Channel Block. If you do not, the channel block will not take effect.
Front Panel Block
Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the
TV's front panel. The remote still tunes to any channel. Front Panel
Block can:
• Keep children from watching TV when the parent is not present.
• Keep small children from playing with the buttons.
(When using this as a Parental Control method, you should remove
access to any remote capable of controlling the front panel while you
have the Front Panel blocked.)
Don't forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of
Channel Block. If you do not, the channel block will not take effect.
Lock/Unlock Parental Controls
Selecting this option lets you lock and unlock parental controls settings
using a password.
If you do not lock parental controls, none of the settings for
Channel Block or Front Panel Block will take effect.
If you forget your password, press and hold TV on the remote and the
MENU button on the television simultaneously for 3 seconds. Parental
controls will then unlock and you can re-enter a password via Lock
Parental Controls.
