V-CHIP SET UP

This enables parents to prevent their children from watching inappropriate material on TV. The limitation is not available for news,

sports programs, unedited movies on premi- um cable channels and Emergency Broadcast System signals.

When you try to access a program which is blocked, “PROTECTED PROGRAM by ...” message appears on the TV screen.

Programming may be rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) or according to the Television Parental Guidelines. In order to block any inappro- priate programming, set your limits in both MPAA RATING and TV RATING.
