LOCKING AND UNLOCKING YOUR RECEIVER
You must lock the receiver for any individual parental controls you have set to take effect.
Locking the receiver also locks TV1’s modulator output (see page 98). To lock the
receiver, you must first create a password. (See Creating or Changing a Password on
page 45.) Be sure to refer to this section whenever you set any locks on your receiver.
