For an Adulto profile, Mediaset documents Modifica profilo, then Gestisci parental control and a choice of three protection levels. Its account PIN area offers another profile-selection route. A Bambino profile is already filtered. The four-digit account PIN can also protect purchases when that separate option is selected.
Start with the intended profile type
The focused help distinguishes Adulto and Bambino profiles. It says adult profiles can have their protection level changed, while a child profile already presents filtered content for younger viewers. Choose the profile you actually intend to configure.
A household may have several profiles with different purposes. Do not infer the restriction on one from the visible picture or name of another. The actual profile and setting are the useful units for this task.
Open the documented control editor
Mediaset gives two routes. Through the profile, select Modifica profilo and Gestisci parental control. Through the Mediaset Account or main menu, choose PIN e parental control, enter the PIN and select the profile to change.
Read the available level for that profile. The published choices are:
| Level | What the help says it blocks |
|---|---|
| Red VM18 | Content prohibited to viewers under eighteen |
| Red VM14 | Content unsuitable for viewers under fourteen |
| Yellow | Content discouraged for under-fourteens without an accompanying adult |
Keep viewing restrictions and purchase protection distinct
The broader Mediaset information page describes a personal four-digit PIN and an option to protect platform purchases. That purchase decision is separate from choosing a programme restriction for a profile. Inspect whether that option is selected if payment access is part of the household’s requirement.
The same page separately discusses the parental controls of a television receiver for terrestrial or satellite viewing. A receiver PIN is another control context. Use the app/account editor for this task rather than assuming a television’s general lock has configured the online profile.
Review the intended outcome after a change
Return to the profiles that matter for the viewing plan and inspect their stated restriction. Keep the programme guidance and the chosen level together when deciding what is suitable. A code protects an action, while a content classification supplies information for that choice.
If help is needed, describe the profile type, editor route and level shown. State separately whether the issue concerns programme access or purchases. That gives official support a specific control to inspect and avoids changing an unrelated device PIN to solve an account-profile question.
