•Ratings (U.S. Ratings/Other Ratings) V-Chip technology lets you restrict access to programming based on program-rating signals sent by the broadcaster. For U.S. ratings, you can also set the time of day for these restrictions to be in effect.

•Lock by Time

Lets you restrict TV use by time of day.

•Front Panel Lock

Lets you disable the controls on the front of the TV. Use this option if there are small children near the TV who may be tempted to press the buttons.

Ratings Menus

The rating menus allow you to:

•Set the time of day to enforce rating restrictions (U.S. ratings only)

The TV comes from the factory with pre-set U.S. V-Chip ratings and with the rating locks turned off. The pre-set ratings are TV rating TV-PG and movie rating PG. If you turn on V-Chip blocking, these presets allow only pro- grams rated TV-PG/PG or lower until you change the rating level.

After changing the channel or device, there may be a delay of up to five seconds before the rating restrictions take effect.
