Parental Control
The Parental Control menu allows you to lock certain channels
you consider unsuitable and to set an age limit so that any
programme classed above that age by the broadcaster is
restricted. Before you can lock channels or set an age limit, you
must set up your own PIN (Personal Identification Number).
You will be requested to enter the PIN before you can view
channels that have been locked or given an age limit.
Note: If you do not want to make use of these functions, please follow
‘Set PIN’ procedure and set the PIN to 0000.
Set PIN
1
Enter the Parental Control menu from the main menu.
‘Set PIN’ will be highlighted. Press the OK button to
select. A display will now ask you to enter your existing
PIN. The New PIN display appears on screen as shown.
2
Use the buttons 0 - 9 to enter a 4 digit number of your
choice.
3
Enter the number again to confirm, then press BACK to
return to Parental Control menu.
Lock Channels
1
Highlight ‘Lock Channels’ in the Parental Control menu
and press the OK button to select. Enter your PIN as
requested. The Parental Lock display appears.
2
Press the V or v button or enter a channel number to
highlight a channel you wish to lock, then press the OK
button to confirm.
If you do not wish to choose from one of the five
channels in the display, press the Red or Green button
to view the previous or next five channels available (if
more than five are available).
Note: A locked channel can be identified by the symbol next
to the programme number.
To lock or unlock all channels
1
Highlight ‘Lock Channels’ in the Parental Control menu
and press the OK button to select. Press the Yellow
button to display a Pop Up menu.

Press the V or v button to choose between ‘Lock all
channels’ or ‘Unlock all channels’. Press the OK button
to confirm.

Set Age Limit

and press the OK button to select. Enter your PIN as
requested. The Age Setting display appears.
2
Use the V or v button to enter the age limit desired
(between 4 and 17). Press the OK button to confirm.
Note: To operate correctly, this feature relies on the
broadcaster sending the correct age classification for
each programme. If in doubt, do not rely on this feature
to prevent viewing of unsuitable channels, but lock each
channel individually.
When you have completed all settings, press the BACK
button repeatedly to return to the main menu.
Note: If you enter an incorrect PIN three times, you will be denied
access to the Parental Control features. Wait 10 minutes then
enter the correct PIN number.
