From the main TF1+ profile on the website, open Sécurité and Définir un code. Enter the six-digit authentication sent to the account email, then choose a four-digit security PIN. Select the payment protection and intended child-profile exit preferences, then save. The email authentication code and the lasting security PIN serve different purposes.
Decide what the code should protect
TF1+ describes a security code for payment access and for leaving the Jeunesse under-10 or under-16 profile. The main profile configures it, and activation is optional. The documented procedure uses the website; a promised future television control should not be assumed to be present.
Before configuring it, identify the children’s profiles in use and the restriction you want. Protecting an exit and protecting a payment flow are related choices, but they should both be read on the actual preferences screen rather than inferred from a general “parental control” label.
Use the documented web sequence
Open the intended account through its main profile. The help gives the following sequence:
- Choose the Sécurité tab, then Définir un code.
- Read the authentication message sent to the account email and enter its six-digit code.
- Set the four-digit security PIN.
- Select Accès au paiement protégé.
- Choose the desired limits for leaving the under-16 and/or Jeunesse profile, then save the preferences.
Keep authentication and protection separate
The emailed six-digit number authenticates the setup. The four-digit PIN is the security code used for the protected actions. If a form asks for one, read the prompt before entering the other. That distinction also helps another adult understand which stage is incomplete.
After saving, inspect which exit preferences were chosen. The help lists those choices separately. A useful household check covers the intended children’s profiles and payment access, rather than treating the mere existence of a PIN as proof that every desired action was selected.
Maintenance uses the account email again
TF1’s help describes Modifier mon code for changing the security code, with a new emailed authentication number. Its forgotten-code flow sends a temporary four-digit replacement to the account email, after which the code can be changed through the account.
Keep access to that email identity with the adult managing the account. If recovery is the issue, state whether the missing message concerns setup authentication or the temporary forgotten-code replacement. These are different messages. Do not include either code in a support report; describe the relevant profile, action and message stage.
