Pressing this combination of buttons clears the password and all other settings to the default values.

Setting Parental Controls

The parental controls use a V-Chip, which is an electronic filtering device built into your TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you select a password and set the values for parental controls.

The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.

■The TV Parental Guidelines help parents screen out inappropriate television shows from their children.

■Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched on cable TV and not edited for television. Options can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.
