Temporarily turn off Parental Controls Either enter the password to watch a show or channel, or
select ‘Temporarily turn off Parental Controls’ from the Parental Controls screen. When
Parental Controls are temporarily turned off, any show or channel can be viewed, but the
password is still required to change Parental Controls settings.
Auto Re-lock When Parental Controls are temporarily turned off, they re-lock automatically
after four hours of no remote control activity. Parental Controls won’t re-lock in the middle of a
show. Use this setting to disable Auto Re-lock.
Change the Password While Parental Controls are on, select ‘Change Password’ from the
Parental Controls screen. Enter a new password, then re-enter the new password to confirm.

content. Select the rating type to change it.

UP/DOWN arrows to adjust which ratings are locked.

unrated movies or TV shows.
Manage Other Ratings Additional regional ratings may be available.
Locking channels
To prevent viewing of certain channels, go to your host DVR and choose ‘Channel Locks’ from
