Because of the range of channels on offer, there may be a few you’d
rather your kids didn’t watch. With a PIN and the right settings, you can
avoid many unsuitable channels being shown without your permission.
For more control over who watches what, start by pressing services,
scroll left to Parental Control
and press select.
You now need to enter your four digit PIN (see below).
Your original PIN is provided in the Terms & Conditions document you
received with your Sky±HD box. You need this number to get into the
Parental Control screens.
Change your PIN to a personal, secret number that you’ll remember
easily. Once you’ve selected the Parental Control option, scroll to the
Change PIN tab and press select. Now key in a new four digit number.
You’ll have to enter it twice.
You can change your PIN from this screen whenever you want.
Keep your PIN secret to make it effective. Once it’s set, you can have
Sky Guide ask for the PIN before showing, recording, playing back,
and in some cases, deleting certain programmes.
If you forget your PIN, please visit sky.com/pinhelp for help on what
to do next.
