Blocking Age-Based Ratings and Content Themes

You can automatically block all program ratings or content above a specified age-based rating level using the V-Chip TV Rating Limit screen.

Refer to the chart at the beginning of this section to learn about each age-based rating and its associated content ratings.

•To block all programs above a certain rating level: Highlight the Rating field, then scroll through the ratings using the up and down arrow buttons until the lowest unacceptable rating is highlighted. Then use the right arrow button to highlight the Rating Status field and select Block.

•To block all programs with specific content above a certain rating level: Content Themes are specific to the rating level. Therefore, you must first highlight the Rating field and scroll through the ratings using the up and down arrow buttons until the lowest rating associated with the type of content you want to block is highlighted. Then highlight the Content Theme Status field and change the V to B under the appropriate Content Theme.

Viewing Age-Based Ratings and Content Themes

After you have blocked age-based ratings and content themes, you have the option of selectively changing some of the ratings and themes back to View.

•To view ratings: Use the left and right arrow buttons to highlight the Rating Field, then use arrow up and down buttons to change its status from Block to View. When you change a specific rating to View, the Content Status fields corresponding to the unblocked rating become View as well.

•To view content: Highlight the Rating field, then use the up and down arrow buttons to find the rating whose Content Theme settings you want to change. Next, highlight the Content Theme Status that you want to change using the right arrow button; then use the up and down arrow buttons to change it to V.
