In addition, recordings and channels that you have blocked can only be accessed by entering a four-digit PIN code (unit PIN). To adjust settings in the menu Parental control proceed as follows:

>Press the Menu key to call up the Main menu.

>Use the arrow keys up/down to mark the line

Settings.

>Confirm by pressing OK.

The sub-menu Settings will be displayed.

>Use the arrow keys up/down to mark the line

Parental control.

>Confirm by pressing OK.

The menu Parental control will be displayed. (Fig. 9-11)

>Use the arrow keys up/down to move the market within the menu and to change the individual positions as indicated.

When selecting a menu item, please also note any

9.3.1 PIN query mode

>In this line, use the arrow keys left/right to set the pin query mode of the parental control function to

Once or Never.

If you set the pin query mode to Once, and have not yet changed the PIN, you will be requested to change the PIN. To do this, proceed as described in Point 9.3.2.

Never

If you select the setting Never you will never be asked for the PIN. The parental control function is switched off.

Once

If you select the setting Once you will be asked to enter the PIN when calling up the main menu or when selecting a blok- ked channel resp. a blocked hard drive recording. To make matters more convenient for you, you will be asked for the PIN only once in each operating cycle.
