•Close caption will disappear temporarily when the OSD menu is displayed on the screen.

Setting up V-CHIP

This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC data. It prevents children from watching violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.

Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the Movie Ratings and the TV Ratings. The Movie Ratings are restricted by age. TV Ratings are restricted by age and content.

Since a TV program may use either the Movie Rratings or the TV Ratings, both should be adjusted for complete control.
