UNDERSTANDING THE AUTOLOCK™ CONTROLS

The AutoLock™ feature is an integrat- ed circuit that receives and processes

data sent by broadcasters, or other pro- gram providers, that contain program con- tent advisories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV with AutoLock™ can respond to the content advisories and block pro- gram content that may be found objection- able (such as offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc.). This is a great fea- ture to censor the type of viewing children may watch.

Over the next few pages you’ll learn how

to block channels and certain rated pro- gramming. Below is a brief explanation of some terms and ratings you will find in the AutoLock feature.

AutoLock™ offers various BLOCKING controls from which to choose:

Access Code: An Access Code must be set to prevent children from unblocking ques- tionable programming.

Channel Block: Individual channels including the A/V inputs can be blocked.

Clear All: Allows you clear all channels being blocked from your viewing set with the Channel Block Control.

Block All: Allows you to block ALL chan- nels and A/V inputs at one time.

Movie Ratings: Block programming based on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures Association of America.

TV Ratings: Block programming based on standard TV ratings set by TV broad- casters.

To learn more about the Motion Picture Ratings and the TV Ratings, refer to the definitions listed on the columns to the right.

Press the SYSTEM MENU (OSD) but- ton twice to display the AutoLock

review screen. This screen shows what is activated within the AutoLock settings.
