Using the TV’s Features

Unlocking programs temporarily

If you try to watch a TV program that exceeds the rating limits you set, the TV enters program lock mode. After 4 seconds, the TV starts the auto favorite channel search function (see page 34). You can either unlock the program temporarily or select a non-locked program to watch.
