How to Set up Restrictions Using the TV Parental Guidelines

First, set up a personal identification number (PIN) and enable the V-Chip. (See previous section.) Parental restrictions can be set up using either of two methods: The TV guidelines or the MPAA rating.

1.Press the MENU button to display the menu.

Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “Setup”, then press the ENTER button.

2.Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “V-Chip”, then press the ENTER button. The message “Enter PIN” will appear. Enter your 4 digit PIN number.

3.The “V-Chip” screen will appear. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “TV

Parental Guidelines”, then press the ENTER button.

4.The “TV Parental Guidelines” screen will appear.

Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select one of the six aged based categories:

• TV-Y: Young children

• TV-PG: Parental guidance

• TV-Y7: Children 7 and over

• TV-14: Viewers 14 and over

• TV-G: General audience

• TV-MA: Mature audience

5.At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.

Press the ENTER button. Depending on your existing setup, the “ ” symbol will be selected. (Blank = Unblocked, = Blocked)

While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER button to block or unblock the category. To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the process.

➣Allow all: Press to unlock all TV ratings.

Block all: Press to lock all TV ratings.

➣The TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings: ALL / FV / V / S / L / D

➣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.)

6.How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.

First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 or

TV-MA (See Step 4) and press the ► button.

The “ ” symbol will be displayed for each sub-rating. While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER button to go to a sub rating. Press ENTER

to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the process.

• ALL: Lock all TV ratings.

• S: Sexual situation

• FV: Fantasy violence

• L: Adult Language

• V: Violence

• D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog

➣The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”. For example, if you block “L” sub-rating in TV-PG, then the “L” sub-ratings in TV-14 and TV-MA will automatically be blocked.

7.Press the EXIT button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section, and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)

➣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.)
