WHAT ARE ACTIVE RENTALS?

The third category on the Main Menu is Active Rentals. You can use the Active Rental list to:

• Review Active Rentals for all boxes in the household listing.

• See how long the rental is available for reviewing.

Subscription On Demand Active Rentals

If you try to order the same movie on multiple converters, you will see the following screen:

PARENTAL CONTROL

The Parental Control feature allows you to block programs by channel, program rating or
time of day. You select the channels, ratings or times to block from the General Settings
menu of the Digital Cable Box. See the section on 

Using Parental Control

in this Guide

for more details on how to activate Parental Control.

Note:

Blocking Active Rentals

The Parental Control restrictions do not affect the Active

Rentals list. To prevent children or others from accessing a program from the Active Rentals
list, you must remove the program from the list. To watch that program again, you must order
it again. For detailed instructions on using Parental Control features, refer to 

Using Parental

Control 

or contact Cablevision Customer Service.
