Auto power off settings 

To   help   you   save   energy,   your   Roku   TV   can   automatically   turn   itself   off   after   a   period   of   inactivity   or   a   
period   during   which   no   signal   has   been   detected.   It   is   factory-­‐configured   to   do   both   of   these   things,   but   
you   can   change   these   settings   if   needed.   

To   configure   automatic   power   off,   from   the   

Home

   screen   menu   navigate   to   

Settings   >   System   >   Power   >

   

Auto   power   off

.   In   the   

Power   settings

   screen,   highlight   the   following   options   and   press   

OK

   to   turn   them   

on   or   off:   

 

After   15   minutes   of   no   signal

   –   If   no   signal   is   detected   on   a   TV   input   for   15   minutes,   the   TV   

automatically   powers   off.   

 

After   4   hours   of   no   interaction

   –   If   no   remote   control   or   panel   button   is   pressed   for   4   hours   and   

the   TV   is   not   displaying   a   TV   signal   or   streaming   a   video,   the   TV   is   automatically   powered   off.   

Configure parental controls 

Parental   controls   enable   you   to   control   whether   the   members   of   your   household   can   view   certain   kinds   
of   broadcast   TV   programs.   When   a   program   or   feature   is   blocked,   you   can   unblock   it   by   entering   a   
parental   control   PIN   that   only   you   know.   

Note

:   

The   parental   control   feature   can   be   used   to   hide   the   

Movie   Store

,   

TV   Store

,   and   

News

   

options   that   are   available   on   the   

Home

   screen   menu   of   Roku   TVs   manufactured   for   the   United   

States.   However,   the   parental   controls   feature   does   not   block   other   streaming   content   nor   
content   from   inputs   other   than   the   TV   tuner.

   

Creating a parental control PIN 

The   first   time   you   access   the   

Parental   controls

   screen,   you   must   create   a   new   parental   control   PIN.   

Thereafter,   whenever   you   want   to   change   parental   control   settings,   unblock   programming   that   has   been   
blocked,   change   the   PIN,   or   disable   parental   controls,   you   must   enter   your   parental   control   PIN.   

Tip

:   

Your   parental   control   PIN   has   nothing   to   do   with   your   Roku   PIN.   You   can   make   them   the   

same   if   you   want—this   is   entirely   your   choice.

   

To   create   a   new   parental   control   PIN,   from   the   

Home

   screen   menu   navigate   to   

Settings   >   Parental   

controls

.   The   screen   displays   a   numeric   keypad.   Use   the   arrow   buttons   and   the   

OK

   button   to   enter   a   

four   digit   code.   Then   repeat   the   process   to   enter   the   same   PIN   again,   just   to   make   sure   you   correctly   
entered   the   PIN   you   want   to   use.
