Setting Viewing Restrictions
The Viewing Restrictions screen lets you select the Parental Rating
categories you want to restrict, so that those who do not know
your PIN cannot watch programmes broadcast at a restricted
classification.
1. From the Parental Control screen, highlight ‘Viewing
Restrictions’, then press select.
The Viewing Restrictions screen displays.
The classification categories you can restrict are explained below:
R For adult viewers aged 18 and over.
AV For adult viewers only - violent content.
MA For viewers aged 15 or over - children under
15 are not permitted to watch MA programmes
unless in the company of a parent or adult
guardian.
M Recommended for viewers aged 15 years or
over.
PG Parental guidance is recommended as to the
suitability of the film for children under 15.
u A ✔ symbol next to the classification category indicates that it
is not restricted.
u A symbol next to the classification category indicates that it
is restricted.
If you restrict a classification category, this means that whenever a
programme is broadcast with that classification, you must enter your
PIN before you can watch it. You must also use your PIN to watch a
recording of a programme with a restricted classification category.
When you restrict a classification category, all the classification
categories above it are automatically restricted.
