Problems with V-Chip/Parental Controls

The rating limits don’t work

You must lock the settings. Go to the MAIN MENU (press MENU on your remote), select Parental Controls (press 5 on your remote), select Lock TV (press 1 on your remote).

I don’t remember my password and I want to unlock the TV

If you forget your password, simultaneously press and hold MENU/OK on the television and VOL down on the remote for 3 seconds. Nothing appears on the screen, Parental Controls simply unlock and you can re-enter a password via Lock TV.

The V-Chip won’t let me watch a program even though it’s not rated as violent.

Maybe the movie was given an NR (Not Rated) status. After you block movie ratings, you must set V-Chip Unrated to View separately in order to view movies with an NR rating.
