Parental Controls settings
Parental Controls help you make sure your family has access to only those shows you want
them to watch. Set limits on movie and television ratings, lock specific channels, and
prevent viewing of recorded shows that violate the settings you choose.
From the TiVo Central screen, choose ‘Settings & Messages,’ then ‘Settings,’ then ‘Parental
Controls.’ (Or, select the padlock icon from the large info banner.)
The padlock icon in the info banner shows the current state of Parental Controls.
Off No password or controls are set. The icon is dim and unlocked.
On Password and controls are set. The icon is bright and locked.
Temporarily Off Controls are set but turned off. The icon is bright and unlocked.
Changing Parental Controls settings
Once Parental Controls are on, you must enter your Parental Controls password to change
any Parental Controls settings.
Turn on Parental Controls Use the number buttons on the remote control to enter a four-
digit password, then enter the same password again for confirmation.
Turn off Parental Controls Enter the password, and press SELECT. When Parental Controls
are off, the password is deleted and anyone can view any shows or watch any channels.
Change PIN Select ‘Change Password’ from the Parental Controls screen. Enter a new PIN,
then re-enter the new PIN to confirm.
Adjusting ratings settings for TV and movies
Movies originally meant for release to theaters have a different rating system from shows
made for TV. Use rating limits to set rules for both rating systems, as well as for specific
types of TV content. Select the rating type to change it.
When you turn Parental
Controls off, your password is
deleted.
