The “TV guidelines” screen will appear.
3 Move the joystick up or down to highlight one of the six age-based categories:
TV-Y | Young children |
TV-Y7 | Children 7 and over |
TV-G | General audience |
TV-PG | Parental guidance |
TV-14 | Viewers 14 and over |
TV-MA | Mature audience |
Note: These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young children through age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else). The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)
At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.
4 Move the joystick right: Depending on your existing setup, a letter “U” or “B” will be select- ed. (U: Unblocked, B: Blocked).
Move the joystick down or up to block or unblock the category. Move the joystick to the right. To select a different TV-Rating, move the joystick down or up and then repeat the process.
Note 1: TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings:
FV:Fantasy violence, D:Dialog, L:Language, S:Sexual situation, V:Violence .
Note 2: The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive.” For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly. (See next section.)
