Two very handy features are our Parental Controls and Favorite Channels. They offer you easy ways to control what you and your family watch. Want to block shows with adult language? No problem. Only interested in sports? Shows you want to watch will be waiting when you turn on your set.
And as your needs change, so can your controls. A few simple commands from your remote control will let you reset the channels that appear as your personal favorites or what your children can watch even when you’re not there
