56 Chapter 5: Using the Options Menu
Unlocking Your System
To unlock a locked system:
1 Select LOCKS AND LIMITS from the Options Menu.
The Set Locks and Limits screen appears, with the current settings
shown next to each button. The padlock ( ) indicates that the
system is currently locked.
2 Select UNLOCK.
3 Enter the passcode number you used to lock the system. Use the 0-
9 buttons to enter the numerical value.
Each number you enter appears as an asterisk ( ), which keeps
your passcode secret.
Your system is now unlocked, and all locks and limits previously set
are no longer in effect.
