Forgotten restrictions/time limit passcode

I have forgotten my restrictions/ time limit passcode. Is there a way to change it without knowing it?

  •   Use parental controls on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New. You can restore from a backup only if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
