I want to loan this to a friend who cannot afford cable but must disable purchases for it to work. There are kids in that household, worse teenage boys, so gotta lock it down if I am going to give this to them and let them access Prime video/audio for free.

Note: Parental controls do not restrict content in third-party applications. Parental controls for third-party applications are determined by the app provider.

From the Home screen, select Settings, and then select Parental Controls.
Using your remote, press the Select button to turn parental controls On or Off.
Enter your Parental Controls PIN, and then select Next. Your PIN is the same PIN you use for other Amazon services such as Amazon Instant Video.
Note: If you forget your PIN, visit www.amazon.com/PIN to reset your Parental Controls PIN.

After you set a PIN, you can set one or more of the following settings:
Require a PIN for all purchases
Require a PIN for Amazon Instant Video only
Block the ability to view or purchase certain content types, such as games, apps, music or photos
Change your Parental Controls PIN
After you enable Parental Controls, most actions related to content viewing, purchasing, or changing settings will require you to enter your Parental Controls PIN.
