3.4 Locks and timers

Child locks
To prevent children from watching a channel or a programme, you
can lock channels or block age-rated programmes.
Parental rating
Some digital broadcasters have programmes rated. When the
rating is equal or higher than the rating you have set for your
child's age, the programme will be blocked.
To watch a blocked programme you must enter the Child lock
code. The parental age rating is set for all channels.
Set an age rating
Press h and select Setup > Channel settings and select Child
lock > Parental rating.
To select an age rating, you must first enter your 4 digit child
lock code. If no child lock code is set, you can set the code
now.
When the code is entered, you can select the age rating. When
the rating of a programme is equal or higher than the rating you
have set for your child's age, the programme will be blocked.
The TV will ask for the code to unblock the programme. For
some operators, the TV only blocks programmes with a higher
rating.
Lock a channel
To lock a channel, press h and select Setup > Channel settings
and select Child lock > Channel lock. In the list of channel
numbers, select a channel and press OK to lock a channel.
In the list, a locked channel is marked with an X. Now, you can
select another channel to lock or unlock. The lock is activated as
soon as you close the menu.
You cannot lock programmes from connected devices.
Change code
To change the current code, press h and select Setup >
Channel settings and select Child lock > Change code.
Enter the current code and then enter the new code twice. The
new code is set.
Forgotten your code?
If you have forgotten your unlock code, call Philips Consumer
Care in your country. Find the telephone number on the
documentation that came with the TV or go to
www.philips.com/support.
Sleep timer
With Sleep timer you can switch the TV to standby at a specified
time.
To set the sleep timer, press h > Setup > TV settings >
Preferences > Sleep timer. With the slider bar you can set the
time up to 180 minutes in increments of 5 minutes. If set to 0
minutes, Sleep timer is switched off.
You can always switch off your TV earlier or reset the time
during the countdown.
