Blocking Movie Ratings

2.

Select Parental Controls.

3.

Select USA V-Chip.

4.

Select V-Chip Movie Rating.

If you only want your child to watch movies that have a PG rating and lower (in other words, movies rated PG and G), then you could automatically block out all other movies with higher ratings.

To block movies:

1.Highlight the rating that is the lowest rating you don’t want the child to watch. (In the example above, you would highlight the rating status button corresponding to PG-13, since the highest rating you want the child to watch is PG.)

2.Press the OK button to change the button from Viewable to Blocked. All higher ratings automatically change to Blocked.

3.If the TV is not locked, you must lock it so the movie rating limits will take effect.

Note: Some movies may be given a Not Rated (NR) rating. After blocking movie ratings, you must set NR to Viewable separately to view NR movies.

Viewing Movie Ratings

After you block movie ratings, you have the option of changing some of the rating status buttons back to Viewable:

1.Highlight the rating you want to view.

2.Press the OK button to change the button from Blocked to Viewable.

For example, if movies with a rating of PG-13 and higher are blocked, you can change the rating status corresponding with NC-17. Your child would then be able to watch all movies with a G, PG, and NC-17 Rating.

3.Exit the screen, and be sure the TV is locked.
