Settings menu.
About your PIN code
When you first use your set-top box, your PIN code is 0000.
In order to make your PIN code secret, you should change it to a secret number that
you find easy to remember (see below).
To display the Control Settings menu:
1. On the Setup menu, highlight ‘Control Settings’, then press
OK.
You will see a message asking you to enter your PIN code.
2. Enter the correct PIN code then press
OK.
3. When you have finished using the Control Settings menu, press
back to
redisplay the Setup menu.
Changing your PIN code
You can change the PIN code to a secret number which you find easy to
remember. Please make sure you do not forget your PIN code.
To change the PIN code:
1. On the Control Settings menu, highlight ‘PIN code modification’ then press
OK.
‘New PIN code’ is highlighted.
2. Use the number buttons to enter a new 4-digit PIN code of your choice. If you
make a mistake, you can press L to delete a digit.
3. Press
D.
‘Repeat new PIN code’ is now highlighted.
4. Enter your new 4-digit PIN code again.
5. If you change your mind and do not wish to change the PIN code, press
back to
cancel your changes.
If you want to save the new PIN code, press OK.
Setting the age lock level
The age lock level lets you set an age limit, so that people who do not know the
PIN code (for example young children) cannot watch programmes that have an age
category rating that is older than the age lock level you have set.
For example, if you set this to ‘11+’, then programmes rated for viewers older than
11 will be locked, and you will need to enter your PIN code to watch them. Age lock
only works if the broadcaster provides rating category information.
If you do not want to set an age lock level, you can set this to ‘Off’.
