V-Chip Signal Information

When provided by the broadcaster, V-Chip ratings can be used to control which programs can be viewed or will be blocked. When V-Chip ratings are sent, you will see the ratings when you change the channel or when you press the INFO button on the remote control. Both TV and Movie ratings will display. TV ratings apply to programs and movies developed for TV and may have supplemental blocking by content categories. Movie ratings use MPAA ratings for movies released in theaters.

V-CHIP EXCEPTIONS:

1.V-Chip is effective only for programs viewed on Ant-1, Ant-2 or from devices connected to inputs 1-3 or IEEE

1394 devices. It is not effective for programs viewed on devices connected to Component input or HDMI.

2.Videotapes, laser discs and DVDs may not contain V-Chip rating signals. If they don’t contain the V-Chip signal, V-Chip cannot block the program or movie.

3.Broadcasters are not currently required to include V-Chip rating signals at this time. If the broadcaster does

not

include the V-Chip rating signal, V-Chip cannot block the program.
