Using the DIRECTV’s Locks and Limits feature is effortless. By selecting "Profiles" from the "menu" button, you will see your various options including "Rating Limit," "Lock User," "Viewing Hours" or "Spending Limit." Once you select an option simply follow the on-screen directions (note: options vary by receiver). Once you controls are in place, you can access any of the programming that you want to watch by entering your secret personal identification (PIN) number.
