The “TV Guidelines” screen will appear.

Press the CH , CH buttons to select one of the six age-based categories:

TV-MA	Mature audience

TV Guidelines

B : Blocked

U : Unblocked

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.)

5

At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected (blue color).

Press the VOL + button: Depending on your existing setup, a letter “U” or “B” will start blinking. (U= Unblocked, B= Blocked)

While the “U” or ”B” is red, press the CH or CH button to block or unblock the category.

Press the VOL + button once to save the TV guidelines. A TV-Rating will be selected (BLUE), and no letters will

blink. To exit this screen, press the Menu button again. To select a different TV-Rating, press the CH or CH button and then repeat the process.

Note 1: The 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:Adult 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.)
