The first time installation procedure (chapter 3) will allow the receiver to be used with its basic functions.
However the receiver offers many more advanced features and options that are illustrated in the following
sections.
4.1 Password
To access settings and events locked by the Parental Control (par. 4.2), a password has to be entered. The
factory set password is “
0000
” (four zeros), but it can be changed by pressing MENU and selecting the
Setup

Parental Lock
.
CAUTION
Take note and keep the new password in a safe place. If you forget your personal password, use the universal code
“

menu and set a new Password.
4.2 Parental Control
The Parental Control protects children by the viewing of sensitive contents. When an event is broadcasted
with a parental rating equal or higher than the parental lock level defined on receiver menu, a system
message will notify that the channel is locked. To see that channel, you have to enter the password (see par.
4.1).
The factory set level is
