UNDERSTANDING THE AUTOLOCK™ CONTROLS

T he AutoLock™ feature is an integrated cir- cuit that receives and processes data sent by

broadcasters, or other program providers, that contain program content advisories.When pro- grammed by the viewer, a TV with Autolock™ can respond to the content advisories and block program content that may be found objection- able (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc.).This is a great feature to censor the type of viewing children may watch.

AutoLock™ offers various BLOCKING controls from which to choose:

Access Code - An Access Code must be set to prevent children from unblocking questionable or censored programming set by their parents.

Channel Block - After an access code has been programmed, you can block individual channels including the A/V inputs.

Clear All - Allows you clear all channels being blocked from your viewing set with the Channel Block Control.

Block All - Allows you to block ALL chan- nels and A/V inputs at one time.

Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options exist which will block programming based on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures Association of America.

TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings, programs can be blocked from viewing using standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.
