3B. Single User Mode & Parental Controls
Single User mode permissions allow you to keep locked content from being accessed or viewed without
the 4-digit parental password being entered. When activated within Single User mode, Parental Controls
apply uniformly across the entire system, preventing access to locked programs via the Guide, Search
results, direct channel entry, LOD playback, the PVR List, and on VOD.

“Parental Controls.”
The following Parental Control options are available:
• Edit Channel List: Allows you to completely remove specific channels from your Guide and
Search results which will leave you with your custom Channel List. Channels that have been
removed can still be accessed via direct channel entry, however will require the PIN to view.
• Adult Content [Unlocked, Locked]: Locking adult content will remove the designated adult
channels from the Guide, set ratings locks to “A (Adults only)”, and require a PIN to access the
