Initial Setup

V-Chip

Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block channels or content that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines. V-Chip has no effect on video signals from a DVD discs, VCR tapes or Camcorder connection.

Note: Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set up V-Chip ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 34 for information on how to block unrated programs.

Note (for Canadian viewers): The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.

You can customize the V-Chip settings of your television to match your personal tastes. The V-Chip menu below is the starting point for your V-Chip settings.

You can use US V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from the United States), Canadian V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from Canada), and movie ratings. You may use any or all of the settings (US V-Chip, Canada V-Chip, Movie ratings). Descriptions for setting each of the three V-Chip formats appear in the next six pages along with descriptions of the rating categories.
