DStv and GOtv parental control features

There are few family bonding experiences that create cherished memories quite like settling down for a snuggle on the couch and enjoying a family-friendly movie or series together. With the kids in the closing week of the virtual school term having control of what the kids have access to is key for many parents.

For the parents only.

In celebration of World Parents Day in July, GOtv and DStv are sharing some of our favourite shows that your family will enjoy. We believe that programme restrictions should be up to each parent to control, which is why you’ll find age-appropriate gradings on all our programmes as well as a Parental Control Function.

You can manage the restrictions on the Parental Control Function to ensure safe viewing for your kids even when you’re not around. This useful function is just one of the ways that DStv and GOtv are striving to provide parents with more control and greater peace of mind.

What is Parental Control?

Parental Control is a value-added feature that lets you control the TV shows and movies that your children can access. You’ll feel reassured knowing that your impressionable little ones aren’t exposed to any harmful or inappropriate content in your absence.

If your children do attempt to access any potentially dangerous content outside of your selected PG rating, a pop-up box will appear asking for your PIN code. Without the PIN code, the show or movie will remain blocked.

How to activate Parental Control on DStv

Here is a simple step-by-step guide to using the DStv function:

Those with PVR decoders:

  • Start by pressing the Menu button on the DStv remote control.
  • From there, select the ‘Parental Control’ Option and key in your pin code. If you have yet to personalise your pin code, the default code is 1234.
  • Next, select ‘Parental Levels’ and then choose the appropriate PG Rating based on your children’s age.
  • Selecting ‘Family’ or ‘PG13’ will block all programmes with a rating of 16 and above.
  • Click Accept to apply the new settings.
  • Press ‘Exit’ to return to your regular viewing.

Households with other decoder models:

  • Press the Menu button on your remote and select the ‘Parental Control’ option. Enter your pin code or the default code (1234) and select ‘User Defined’.
  • You can change the default code by entering your code and selecting ‘change pin’.
  • Scroll to ‘Parental Levels’ and then choose the appropriate PG Rating based on your children’s age.
  • Press ‘OK’ to save and implement the settings.
  • Press ‘Exit’ to return to your regular viewing.

How to activate Parental Control on GOtv

  • Press the Menu button on your remote and select the ‘Parental Control’ option.
  • Key in the default pin code, 1234 (You can change the default code by entering the code of your choice and selecting change pin).
  • Select your preferred PG rating blocking option. If you select ‘Total Blocking’, all channels will be blocked.
  • You can personalise the channel blocking if preferred.
  • Want to cancel your settings later? Select the ‘Reset All’ option in the Parental Control menu.

Family-friendly shows and channels

The ultimate channel for the little ones? You can’t go wrong with Cartoon Network (DStv – Channel 136) for your kids’ best-loved toon stars. There are engaging cartoons for youngsters of all ages, some of which parents are sure to adore, too.
