Kindle FreeTime to create personalised profiles for your child, select books from
your library to share, and set daily reading goals while automatically blocking
access to places you may not want your child to go, such as the Kindle Store,
Goodreads on Kindle or the Experimental Web Browser. Use Restrictions to
manually block the Experimental Web Browser, Kindle Store, Cloud and/or
Goodreads on Kindle. When you set up Kindle FreeTime or turn on a restriction
for the first time, you will be prompted to create a password. Note that this
password will be required to make changes to settings within Parental Controls. To
change the password, select Change Password from the Parental Controls screen. If
you forget your password, reset it by visiting
deregistering your device, or by contacting Kindle Customer Service. When
Restrictions are enabled or a Kindle FreeTime profile is active, you will see a lock
icon at the top of the screen next to the Wi-Fi status indicator, and the
Deregistration and Reset Device options will be disabled.
