How can I take child lock off my Magnavox (Model No. MPF-68)?

When I turn on my television all I get is a black screen with red writing on it "Child Lock - Turn Child Lock Off", it then turns itself off after around a minute.
Can anyone help?????

I just unlocked Child lock on my TV by simply pressing power and TV/AV button simultaneously. Thanks guys for your advice.

You are a Champion, I got given a Magnavox tv because the privious owner didnt know how to take the CHILD LOCK off. I couldnt believe that it was as simple as power/av thanks heaps.

Power Red & TV/AV button worked a treat. Thanks so much. Cheers

Thanks Asham for your advice. I have finally unlocked my TV after a week of trying. Even the experts couldn't do it!!
