Blocking Movie Ratings

If you only want your child to watch movies that have a PG rating and lower (in other words, movies rated PG and G), then you could automatically block out all other movies with higher ratings.

To block movies:

1. Determine the lowest level rating you do not want the child to watch.

2. Continuously press 1 until the lowest rating you do not want the child to watch appears as the rating. (In the example above, you would keep pressing 1 until the rating status scrolled to PG-13, since the highest rating you want the child to watch is PG.)

3.Press 2 to change the status from View to Block. All higher ratings’ status will automatically change to Block.

4. Press MENU to exit.

• Press RESET to return all rating limits to VIEW.
