FRONT PANEL BLOCK
Front Panel Block
Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front panel. The remote still tunes
to any channel. When using this as a Parental Control method, remove access to any remote that is capable
of operating the television while you have the front panel blocked.
Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status. If you don’t, the front panel block will not
take effect.
Lock/Unlock Parental Controls
Selecting this option lets you lock and unlock parental controls settings using a password.
If you do not lock parental controls, none of the settings for V-Chip, Channel Block, or Front Panel Block
will take effect.
If you forget your password, simultaneously press and hold MENU on the television and volume down on the
remote for 3 seconds. Nothing appears on the screen; Parental Controls simply unlock and you can re-enter a
password via
Lock Parental Controls
