1. In the Xbox Dashboard, using the left stick or round pad on your controller, go to the “System” tab, then “Family Settings,” and press the green A button to access “Console Controls.”
2. Press the green A button again to select “Game Ratings.” Select the maximum ESRB rating level you deem appropriate for your children by pressing the green A button.
3. Go to “Set Pass Code” and press the green A button twice, at which point you must enter a 4-button pass code using the Xbox controller
buttons. Select a question and answer in case you forget or want to reset your pass code.
4. Select “Done” on both the “Set Pass Code” and “Console Controls” screens to save your settings.
5. Select “Yes, Save Changes” to activate.
You can also use “Console Controls” to:
- Activate the “Family Timer” to limit the total amount of time the console can be used per day or week
- Manage access to Microsoft’s online service “Xbox Live”
- Block access to movie DVDs by MPAA rating
- Hide restricted content (e.g., downloadable games,
and “Inside Xbox”
Other tips about Xbox Live:
- You may want to set up a separate “Xbox Live” account for each child in your family
- “ Xbox Live Controls” (found in “Family Settings”) also allow you to:
• Manage whom your child can communicate and play with and by
what means (voice, text and/or video) (select “Privacy and Friends”)
