USING THE PROFILES
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING A USER PROFILE
When you lock a profile, you prevent anyone who does not know the user password from
accessing the locked profile. This applies only when they press WHO on the remote
control. It does not prevent them from accessing and editing the profile via the main
menu if they first enter the system password.
When you lock a profile (excluding “Family”), you lock its channel limits, rating limits,
and spending limits. After locking the profile, you need to enter the system password to
edit these settings.
1. Choose the profile you want to lock or unlock from the Profiles menu, highlight
Lock User or Unlock User, and press OK.

Each user profile can be locked
and assigned a personal password.
When the profile is locked, the
password must be entered to use
that profile.
In order to lock this user, enter
the four-digit password to use
as this user's personal password.

Locking the user profile protects the limits you
set up.
2. When locking a user, use the arrows or the digits on the remote control to enter a
four-digit user password.
Some other things to remember about locking and unlocking profiles are:
•For a lock to be effective, you must exit out of the menu system.
• When you attempt to access a profile’s channel that is blocked by one or more limits
and the system is locked, you will be asked to unlock the video by entering the
SYSTEM password.
•If you enter the system password to override a limit, the lock on the channel banner
will turn yellow, and all limits are temporarily unlocked until you turn off the
television. When you turn on the television again, the system will be locked, and the
Family profile channel list will be active. If you want to re-lock without turning off
the television, you can select the lock icon in the channel banner.
•If a profile is locked and you want to access its channels, press WHO on the remote
control and then enter the user password.
•If a profile is locked and you want to access its settings, you can access it through the
menu system by choosing Profiles, then choosing the profile name. Then enter the
system password.
Don’t Forget Your Password
If you forget a USER password and
the system is locked, you need to
unlock the system and then assign a
new user password. If the system is
not locked, select Profiles from the
main menu, choose Unlock User,
and enter a new password.
