V-Chip

Your monitor is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block programs or content that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines.

Note: Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set up V-CHIP ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 33 for information on how to block unrated programs.

You can not use the "V-Chip" function under the following conditions:

1)When your device that you have connected can not send the rating signal to the monitor.

2)When the picture signals are component signals (except 480i), digital signals from the HDMI 1 terminal, or PC signals.

Note (for Canadian viewers): The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.

You can customize the V-Chip settings of your monitor to match your personal tastes. The V-Chip menu below is the starting point for your V-Chip settings

You can use US V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from the United States), Canadian V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from Canada), and movie ratings. You may use any or all of the settings (US V-Chip, Canada V-Chip, Movie ratings). Descriptions for setting each of the three V-Chip formats appear in the next six pages along with descriptions of the rating categories.
