Want to set upper and lower temperatures in heating and cooling modes

I have a 3rd gen Learning Thermostat.  Online it says I should be able to lock the thermostat and set limits for temperature in heating a cooling modes.  I went to Cool, set a pin and it asked the range of temperatures I wanted.  OK, so hopefully that worked.  Unlocked the thermostat, then set it to Heat and then Lock and it asked for a range of temperatures, but it was the temperatures I set for Cool.  Do I just set new temperatures and it will remember them for Heat?  I don't have access to the thermostat as it's in a house that I rent, so I can't confirm.

I called Google and the person said I can't do what the online instructions say I can do, I have to set a schedule and that's the only way to set max. and min. temperatures.  This made no sense to me, so now I'm posting here to get help.

I don't want someone who rents the house to set the temp too low or too high.  I should be able to stop this via the Lock Pin?  Again, just not sure if the Heat and Cool settings I specified are being saved or not.  Any help would be appreciated.
