Channel Block

Selecting this option lets you decide what channels can be viewed.

View Makes the selected channel viewable.

Block The front panel and remote control CHAN (channel) buttons will tune only to channels that you have marked as View. The remote will still tune to the blocked channel if you use the digits to access the channel, but the channel will be blocked.

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of Channel Block. If you do not, the channel block will not take effect.

Note: If you have a digital cable box channels 126-999 can be blocked but will not be removable from your scan list.

Front Panel Block

Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front panel. The remote still tunes to any channel. Front Panel Block can:

•Keep children from watching TV when the parent is not present.

•Keep young children from playing with the buttons.

(When using this as a Parental Control method, you should remove access to any remote that is capable of operating the television while you have the front panel blocked.)

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status. If you do not, the front panel block will not take effect.
