•If you lose the password, you can cancel the existing password by the following procedure:

- Keep pressing (Volume) – button of the main unit and press “0” key of remote control simultaneously for a few seconds.

•If you want to change password, follow steps 1-3 and select “CHANGE PASSWORD” then enter your new password.

•The V-Chip function is activated only on programs and tapes that have the rating signal.

•Once you block a program using the V-Chip function, the blocked program cannot be watched based on the content of the show. When the program starts, the “IF YOU CANCEL PROTECT, INPUT PASSWORD.” will appear on the screen. When you want to release the V-Chip temporarily, enter the password.

If you change the channel or turn off the TV while the V-Chip function was temporarily released, the original setting will be resumed. If you return to the channel you were watching you must re-enter your password to temporarily release your V-Chip function again.

•If you are changing channels using a VCR or a cable box, while the TV remains on channel 3 or 4, the V-Chip operates differently. When you enter your password to temporarily release the block on any channel, you have completely disabled the V-Chip function for all stations. To reset the V-Chip turn your TV off and back on.

•Some cable boxes are built with a delay feature, in some cases it can take up to 10 seconds for a program to appear after the password has been input.
