Using the game timer

You can use the game timer to set a time limit for playing a video game (30-120 minutes). When the game timer is activated, the TV enters VIDEO LOCK mode and locks out the input source for the video game device.

To set the game timer:

1.From the LOCKS menu, select GAME TIMER.

2.Press x or • to select the length of time until the video mode is blocked from among 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes. When the number is highlighted, the timer will start countdown.

Note:

To deactivate the game timer, set the VIDEO LOCK to OFF (see “Locking video inputs” on page 39).
