To help parents easily manage and adjust their children’s daily TV viewing, brands have added a child lock feature on modern televisions. Join Tnhelearning.edu.vn to learn about this feature and how to use it in the article below!

What is a child lock?

Child lock is a feature equipped on some modern televisions, allowing users to set up a mode to manage content channels suitable for children. On some smart TVs, this feature also allows parents to prevent children from opening online entertainment applications available on the TV.

The child lock feature is a way for parents to manage and regulate children’s TV viewing, directing children to healthy children’s entertainment channels. At the same time, locking down the channel will help children reduce the time they spend sitting in front of the TV to go out to play and study.

How does the child lock work?

All TV models with child lock feature work on the following principle:

• The TV allows you to set a passcode . If you want to set a channel lock or adjust the channel lock mode on and off, you must enter this password.
• When opening locked content on the TV, you must enter the passcode. Young children do not know the password, nor do they know the working mechanism of the child lock, so they will not be able to open the locked channel.

How to use the child lock function on the TV

Step 1: At the screen interface, select Settings .

Step 2: Scroll down to find and select Security and restrictions.

Step 3: Continue to click on Create restricted profile.

Step 4: Set PIN and re-enter to confirm.

Step 5: Adjust enable/disable applications that allow access. Drag to the right is allowed and to the left is not allowed.

Step 6: Press the Back button on the remote > Select Switch to restricted profile.

Once done, the TV will go into restricted mode and previously installed apps that weren’t allowed will no longer be accessible without entering the PIN.
