Usually, the child lock on the TV can be turned off easily by the person who turned it on. However, cases of accidental activation are common - for example, if a small child has played with the remote control. It happens that child protection has been used once and for a long time, and the on-off method is forgotten. Helpful advice can help in these situations.

- - television;
- - remote control;
- - instruction.
Instructions
Step 1
Take the TV remote control. If it is lost, you may need to buy a new one. You can do this in electronics stores or on the radio market. The fact is that often child protection blocks the buttons on the TV itself and you cannot turn it off without a remote control. Press the "Menu" button. From the lines that appear, select "Settings", then "Childproofing". Select Disable.
Step 2
Your TV may have been password protected. If you do not remember it, try entering 0000. If unsuccessful, try to find the default password in the instructions. In some models, the protection is removed by holding down the Stbuy or Disp button. There may be other options, for example, pressing certain buttons together. Information about this can be found in the instructions.
Step 3
If you have lost your TV manual, look for it on the Internet. There you can also find lists of universal passwords and ways to remove protection. If possible, print it out and keep it out of the reach of children. Sometimes it is taken for the included child protection that the TV has stopped responding to button presses. It is not always so. Sometimes it's enough just to change the batteries in the remote control or to make sure that all the buttons are in order.
Step 4
If the above does not help, you should contact the service center. You may be able to get help over the phone. However, there is a chance that this is a breakdown and the TV needs to be repaired. Don't be tempted to hit it off. You can change the settings and get confused completely.
Step 5
There is also an external protection device that blocks the TV signal, that is, all programs at once. In the settings, you can set parameters, for example, the time during which the protection is active. Management is carried out using a key card. It is impossible to disable protection without a key on your own.
