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 high degree of control over the broadcasts that their children can access. It enables parents to allow those programs that are judged suitable for child viewing, while blocking those that are judged not suitable. It does this 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 (U.S. TV Rating) and movie ratings:

■The TV Parental Guidelines help parents screen out television shows that are unsuitable for their children to view.

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