ThePARENTAL CTRL and CHAN
CTRL functions let you lock any
channels you choose so they cannot
be viewed by your children.
Channels that have been locked can
be viewe.d only when the
PARENTAL CTRL function is set to
OFF. This can only be done with the
remote control-it can not be changed
with the buttons on the front of the
TV. Therefore, after you turn on
PARENTAL CTRL, you simply hide
the remote control so that your
children can not watch the locked
channels.. An optional simplified
remote (shown on page 45) is also
available that your children can use.
The simplified remote does not allow
access to the locked channels.
The locked-out channels will remain
unviewable even if the TV is
unplugged or the channels are
autoprogrammed again. The only
way to view locked channels is to use
the supplied remote control to set the
PARENTAL CTRL function to OFF.
Note: Channels above 99 cannotbe locked.
