Hiding adult channels

You can hide all channels classed as ‘adult’ from channel listings, as follows:

1 Select Adult Channels from the Parental Control menu.

2 Highlight Remove Adult Channels and use the left/right arrow

to choose On.

3 Select Save New Settings when you’re done.

If you want to be able to see the adult channels again, just choose Off in the

Adult Channels screen.

Adult programmes are removed from all listings apart from your

Planner.

Restricting rated programmes

Some programmes have an age rating as a guide to how suitable they are

for children. You can lock these programmes, so anyone who wants to watch

them has to enter the PIN. This is especially useful for programmes in your

Planner, as well as Box Ofﬁ ce and Sky Anytime programmes, which are

available outside the normal schedule.

1 Select Viewing Restrictions from the Parental Control menu, highlight

the appropriate rating and press the red key (Restrict) on your remote

control. A padlock symbol appears next to the category you choose, as

well as all the lower categories.

2 Press select when you’re done.

If you want to unlock rated programmes, just highlight the category in the

Viewing Restrictions screen and press the red key again (Unrestrict).

Viewing restrictions can be applied only to programmes where the

broadcaster provides category restriction information.
