UNDERSTANDING AUTOLOCK

The AutoLock feature can help par-

ents censor what their children watch on TV. AutoLock receives con- tent advisories sent by broadcasters or other program providers. After you program AutoLock, it can respond to the content advisories and block pro- grams that contain content which you may consider objectionable—offensive language, violence, or sexual situa- tions.

In this section, you’ll learn how to block channels and programming that is not rated, is unrated, or has no rat- ing. You will also find out how to turn these blocking features on or off. Following on this page are brief expla- nations of AutoLock terms and pro- gram ratings.

Terms

BLOCKING control—can be thought of as the “master switch” for AutoLock. This control affects the set- tings you have chosen for blocking programs according to movie ratings or TV ratings, or for blocking pro- grams that have no rating or are unrat- ed. When the BLOCKING control is OFF, the blocking or censoring of pro- grams is disabled. When the BLOCK- ING control is ON, blocking will occur according to the settings you have chosen.

BLOCK UNRATED control—if set to ON, blocks all unrated programs.

Unrated programming consists of the kind of shows that the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) or the TV broadcasters have chosen not to rate.

NO RATING control—if set to ON, blocks all programming with no con- tent advisory data.

Programming that has No Rating is not encoded with any rating information from the MPAA or the Parental Guidelines. Any programming could fall into this category.

You can also block individual chan- nels using the BLOCK CHANNEL control.
