Rating Options

zThe content ratings will

increase depending on the level of the age-based rating. For example, a program with a TV- PG V (Violence) rating may contain moderate violence, while a TV-14 V (Violence) rating may contain more intense violence.

zTo ensure maximum

blocking capability, the age- based ratings should be blocked.

zIf you block unrated TV programs, be aware that the following types of programs may be blocked: emergency broadcasts, political programs, sports, news, public service announcements, religious programs and weather.

For US models, the Custom Rating Menu includes the following options. (For Canadian models, see page 45.)
