Configuring parental controls
Parental controls enable you to control whether the members of your household can
view certain kinds of broadcast TV programs. When a program or feature is blocked,
you can unblock it by entering a parental control PIN that only you know.
Note
:
Parental controls block content from the TV tuner and from streaming options, if
any, on the Home screen menu. Parental controls do not block content on other TV
inputs or content from streaming channels you add to your TV.
Creating a parental control PIN
The first time you access the
Parental controls
screen, you must create a new parental
control PIN. Thereafter, whenever you want to change parental control settings,
unblock programming that has been blocked, change the PIN, or disable parental
controls, you must enter your parental control PIN.
Tip
:
Your parental control PIN has nothing to do with your Roku PIN. You can make
them the same if you want—this is entirely your choice.
To create a new parental control PIN, from the Home screen menu navigate to
Settings
> Parental controls
. The screen displays a numeric keypad. Use the arrow keys and then
press
OK
to enter a four digit code. Then repeat the process to enter the same PIN
again, just to make sure you correctly entered the PIN you want to use.
Important
:
If you forget your parental control PIN, the only way to recover is to
perform a factory reset operation, as explained in
Factory reset everything
. Be sure to
write it down in a safe place just in case.
