Front Buttons Unblocked
When the buttons on the TV are blocked and the TV is
locked, only the remote or keyboard will control the TV.
Note: If power to the TV is lost for a prolonged time (for
example, due to a power outage) the buttons become
unblocked.
Two lines of help text will appear in this area to explain the
feature and instruct the user on how to use it.
Front Button Block
Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front
buttons. The remote still tunes to any channel. Front Panel Block can:
• Keep children from watching TV when the parent is not present.
• Keep young children from playing with the buttons on the TV.
(When using this as a Parental Control method, you should remove access to any
remote that is capable of operating the television.)
Don’t forget to lock the TV after you select Blocked. If you do not, the front panel
block will not take effect.
Note: If power to the TV is lost for an extended period, the buttons become
unblocked. Blocking the front buttons does not disable the front input jacks.
