V-Chip enables parents to prevent their children from watch- ing inappropriate material on TV. V-Chip reads the

ratings for TV programming (except for news and sports programs, unedited movies on premium cable channels, and Emergency Broadcast System signals), then denies access to programming if the program’s rating meets the limitations you select. In this case, a “PROTECTED PROGRAM by ...” message appears on the TV screen.You must select a different TV channel or play a disc instead.

V-Chip affects only TV channels. It does not block DVD playback.To block DVD viewing, change the PARENTAL feature. Details are on pages 49-52.

TV programming may be rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) or according to the Television Parental Guidelines. In order to block any inappropriate programming, set your limits in both places (MPAA RATING and TV RATING).
