Unlocking programs temporarily
1. If you try to watch a TV program that exceeds the rating limits
you set, the TV enters program lock mode. After 4 seconds, the
TV starts the favorite channel search function (see page 33). You
can either unlock the program temporarily (see steps 2-4) or
select a non-locked program to watch.
