Parental Guide

This feature allows parents to block certain programs from being viewed, based on the program’s rating. In order to access this menu, you must first enter a pass code. The factory default is 6688. Enter the pass code while the Parental Guide is highlighted. Now, with Parental Guide set as On, press > to access the TV Rating grid.

TV Rating

Press to navigate between the ratings, press the TV/VCR MENU key to block out a particular rating completely. Or, if you wish, press to highlight an individual rating (anywhere a U is displayed in the middle of the grid.) Pressing the TV/VCR MENU key with one of these individual ratings highlighted will block only programs that feature that particular aspect. See the TV rating diagram at right for an example.
