Using the Parental Control Feature

The TV programs and movies shown on TV are given a rating signal based on the following rating systems.

In U.S.A.: U.S. Television Parental Guidelines to rate television programs (U.S. TV ratings), and Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) Guidelines to rate movies including those shown on TV (movie ratings)

In Canada: Canadian English Language ratings to rate television programs in English, and Canadian French Language ratings to rate those in French.

To block programs you feel are unsuitable for your children, you need to set the TV for the desired rating systems. Sony’s predetermined ratings are also available.
