Using Your
Parental Controls
Parental Controls allow you to keep your kids from seeing programs you don't want them to watch. You
can block specific channels, titles or shows according to their ratings. You can also hide adult titles so they
won't appear in the on-screen program guide. Another feature is the ability to prevent your children from
purchasing On Demand programs or Pay-Per-View Events without your consent. After setting a personalized
four-digit code, you can set Parental Controls either from the on-screen program guide or while you are
watching television. For more information visit our website at comcast.com/parentalcontrols or call

most comprehensive locks available in the guide.
