Choose which behaviour you want to restrict
A household may want to limit mature programmes, prevent accidental purchases, or do both. Mediaset Infinity’s Spanish help treats these as separate settings within its PIN and parental-control area. Creating an age restriction does not by itself establish that the purchase-protection option has also been enabled. Review both controls explicitly instead of relying on the existence of a PIN alone.
Set the age range for the intended profile
The publisher describes age restrictions that are configured for individual profiles. When a viewer using that profile requests content above its selected age threshold, the service asks for the unlocking PIN, including for live and on-demand viewing. Check the profile currently selected on the television before diagnosing a restriction that appears to be missing. The same household account can contain profiles with different age settings.
Inspect the purchase control separately
In the Spanish web account, open the user menu and PIN y control parental. After authentication with the existing PIN, the documented purchase option can require the code when buying content, a subscription or a channel. The account holder should check its actual state rather than assume that setting a child’s age range toggled it automatically. Keep the code private from people whose purchases the control is meant to restrict.
Review without making an unwanted transaction
After changing settings, inspect the chosen profile and the displayed purchase-protection status. Do not complete a paid order merely to test the control. If the current interface differs, use the Spanish service’s updated help and account support. This article concerns mediasetinfinity.es, the successor to Mitele, rather than Italy’s similarly named platform. It describes publisher controls and their limits; it does not promise that every device or third-party purchase route is governed by the same screen.
Questions, answered
Does setting a Mediaset Infinity age restriction automatically prove purchases need a PIN?
No. The Spanish help describes purchase protection as a separate option that should be checked explicitly.
Can different Infinity profiles have different age restrictions?
Yes. The Spanish help describes selecting the profile and assigning its age restriction separately.
