in the information box. The PVR will play just the section of the programme that you have marked. If the current posi- tion is within that section, it will carry on playing until then end, otherwise it will return to the start of the marked section. Playback of the section will continue until you press Stop, or until you change the repeat option by pressing the White but- ton again.

4.4.4 Parental lock

To prevent your children from seeing material that you do not think is suitable for them, your Topfield PVR incorporates a parental control system, which uses a four digit PIN code. The code is initially set to 0000, and can be changed by selecting System Setting then Parental Control from the main menu.

The Censorship option allows you to turn off parental controls on broadcast programmes, to restrict all viewing, requiring a PIN code, or to restrict viewing based on the age ratings broad- cast by television companies.

In the UK, broadcasters do not normally transmit age ratings as part of the digital TV information, and so you should set the Censorship option to No Block, and lock the channels you prefer your children not to see, as described below, in Organising the channel list.

The Access Control option on this menu allows you to restrict access to some of the system settings menus; select Locked to prevent access to each item without entering the PIN code.
