Setting the Ratings Limit

The Ratings Limit display screen allows you to set a maximum viewing limit for rated programs, so long as the program provider has transmitted the proper code. This feature can be used to prevent certain rated programs from being viewed. Once a ratings limit is set and the system is locked, programs that have a higher rating than the set limit cannot be viewed without first entering your four-digit key. You can change your ratings limit whenever you wish.

Note: The rating limit can not be enforced if a program has not been rated, or if rating information for that program is not transmitted by the program provider.

Setting the Spending Limit

The Spending Limit display screen prompts you to set a maximum spending limit for any one program. This may be useful in preventing expensive programs from being purchased inadvertently. Once a limit is set and the system is locked, programs that are more expensive than the limit cannot be purchased and viewed without first entering your four-digit key. You can change your spending limit whenever you wish.

Setting the Channel Limit

The Channel Limit allows you to designate which channels are “parent- approved.” This means that only those channels with check marks in the Parent-approved column of the Channel Limits and Lists display screen can be viewed when the system is locked (see below).

Once a channel limit has been set and the system is locked, programs that are not included in the Parent-approved list cannot be viewed without first entering your four-digit key.

To set channel limits:
