V-Chip and Parental Controls

The V-Chip Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV so that children cannot see certain programs.

The choices in this menu involve a chip inside your TV, called V-Chip. These V-Chip functions will not work on your TV because the features depend upon special additions to the broadcast signal, not yet available in your market. Please disregard them.
