Parental Guide

This feature allows parents to block certain programs from being viewed, based on the programs’ rating. In order to access this menu, you must first enter a pass code. The factory default is 6688.

If this turns the Parental Guide “Off,” press the right arrow key until Parental Guide in “On.” With Parental Guide “On,” press the right arrow key to access the TV Rating grid.

Using the up & down arrow keys to navigate between the ratings, press the “Menu” key to block out a particular rating completely. Or, if you wish, press the down arrow key to highlight an individual rating (anywhere a “U” is displayed in the middle of the grid.) Pressing the “Menu” key with one of these individual ratings highlighted will block only programs that feature that particular aspect. See the TV rating diagram at right for an example.
