Setting rating limits

To control the ratings of the programs your family can watch, set rating limits in the Family profile. Rating limits set in the Family profile apply to the entire DIRECTV® System no matter which user profile is active (as long as the system is locked).

There are various systems used to rate TV programs. Your DIRECTV® HD Receiver allows you to set limits for the following kinds of ratings:

TV program ratings for the Entire Audience.

TV program ratings specifically for Children.

TV program ratings for unrated programs (TV rating of none).

Movie ratings based on the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) ratings.

If you have younger TV viewers in your home, you should set the maximum rating for each of these program-types to ensure the most effective ratings control.
