Rating Code Locks

•Rating code locks use the codes the original program providers assign to the programs. The actual content of the programs may be different from the assigned ratings.

Note: No rating system can guarantee that all unwanted material is screened out.

•Like all other locks, these locks work only when you lock the receiver.

•You can lock any satellite program, even a pay per view program.

•The locks built into some TVs (“V chip” locks) don’t work for satellite programs.

•TV program ratings are different from movie ratings.

•Receiver locks don’t work for TV programs.

Use Locks

Important: If you create a password, be sure to write it down and put it away some where safe, as you will not be able to change any locks or unlock the receiver without it.
