Setting parental controls
Parental controls let you prevent your children from watching
inappropriate material on TV. When set, parental controls read the
rating of the program (with some exceptions, such as news and sports)
and deny access to programs that exceed the ratings level you select. To
watch programs that exceed the selected rating, you must enter a
password.
Note: Parental controls are only effective for a TV source.
Setting or changing the password
When you enter the Parental Controls menu for the first time, the
password is not required so that you can specify your own password. We
suggest that you specify your own password as soon as possible.
