Front Panel Block

Select this option to block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front panel buttons so that they can't be used by someone, like a young child. The remote still tunes to any channel. If you're using this to keep children from changing channels, remove access to any remote that is capable of operating the television while you have the front panel blocked.

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status. If you don’t, the front panel block will not take effect.

Lock Time Menu

Turn this option on to lock the Time menu so that the time settings can't be changed by someone, like a young child. Press OK to place a check mark in the box to lock the Time menu. When you access the Time menu you'll need to enter a password to view the channel.

Blocking Unrated/Exempt Programs

The Unrated/Exempt option lets you decide if programs that the V-Chip recognizes as unrated or exempt can be viewed. Unrated TV programs may include news, sports, political, religious, local and weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and programs without ratings. The Exempt option applies to both USA and Canadian unrated programs and Canadian programs rated E.

View All unrated programs are available.

Block All unrated programs are not available.

Note: You must remember to lock Parental controls for rating limits to take effect.

Press the down arrow button to highlight Unrated/Exempt. Then press the right arrow button to toggle between View and Block.

Future Rating Region

You might notice an option in your Parental control menu that wasn't there before. This is because broadcasters have the capability to add a new rating system for TV programs.
