Questions About Parental Controls

My Parental Controls are not working.

For Parental Controls to work, they must be on (and not temporarily turned off).

Whenever you enter a password to bypass Parental Controls, Parental Controls

become temporarily turned off. If they are turned off, you can turn them back on at the

Parental Controls screen (see page 90), or by putting your recorder in standby mode

and then taking it out of standby.

Do I have to change Parental Controls settings before I can watch a program that
exceeds the current limits?

No, you don’t. You can enter the current password to temporarily turn off Parental

Controls. If they are temporarily turned off, you can turn them back on at the Parental

Controls screen (see page 90), or by putting your recorder in standby mode and then

taking it out of standby.

I’ve lost my password for Parental Controls. What should I do?

If you have lost your password, you can call DIRECTV Customer Care at the phone

number provided on the back of this guide.
