V-Chip Unrated Program Block

Selecting this option lets you decide if programs that the V-Chip recognizes as “unrated” can be viewed. Note that “unrated” TV programs may include news, sports, political, religious, local and weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and programs without ratings.

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.

Channel Block

Selecting this option lets you decide what channels can be viewed. View Makes the selected channel viewable.

Block The front panel and remote control CH (channel) buttons will tune only to channels that you have marked as View. The remote will still tune to the blocked channel if you use the digits to access the channel, but the channel will be blocked.

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of Channel Block. If you do not, the channel block will not take effect.

Note: If you have a digital cable box channels 126-999 can be blocked but will not be removable from your scan list.
