You can limit the amount that may be spent on a single pay per view
event. When Parental Controls are on, a password is required to purchase any event that
exceeds the limit. To set the spending limit:
1. Select “Spending Limit.” A password screen appears.
2. Enter the password and press SELECT. If Parental Controls are off, you are asked to
create a new password and they are turned on.
3. The Spending Limit screen appears. Use the number buttons on the remote control to
enter a spending limit. If you set the spending limit to zero (“0”), pay per view
programs cannot be purchased without entering the correct password.
4. Press SELECT to save your changes and return to Parental Controls, or press LEFT
arrow to discard your changes and return to Parental Controls.

To change the password for Parental Controls, Parental

new password, then re-enter the new password to confirm.
Turning off Parental Controls ( ).
Select “Turn off Parental Controls,” enter the
password and press SELECT. When Parental Controls are turned off, the password is
deleted and anyone can view any programs or watch any channels.

prefer to temporarily turn off Parental
Controls, so that another person in your
household does not choose a new
password.
