Hotel mode

Hotel mode stops anyone from accidentally changing the personal preference (PP) control settings and tuning of
your television by locking the menus which are used for tuning in the programmes; and lets you prevent anyone
turning up the volume above a limit that you decide.
To turn on hotel mode
1 Select a programme number to see and hear a programme.
2 Adjust the sound volume to the loudest you want.
3 Select programme number 38 (it doesn't have to be tuned to a television channel).
4 Press the menu button on the front of the television and at the same time press the J button on the remote
control. Keep pressing them and wait until H+ appears on the screen. This will take at least 4 seconds.
5 Press the B button on the remote control so your television goes on stand-by.
6 Press one of the number buttons (1 to 9) to turn your television on again. The H+ will have disappeared but
the maximum volume limit and tuning menu lock will be working.
If anyone presses the N button and Q button together, LOCKED will be displayed on the screen for a few
seconds to show that hotel mode is working.
To turn off hotel mode
Repeat steps 3 to 6 above. In step 4, H– is displayed to confirm that the hotel mode is going to be turned off.
