Viewing Specific Content Themes

If you block specific content themes, you have the option of going back and changing some of the content themes back to (V) View:

1.Determine the content themes you want to change to

(V) View.

2.Use the up and down arrow buttons to scroll through the age-based ratings until the rating whose content theme you want to change to View appears.

3.Press the right arrow button to move the yellow highlight to a particular content theme status, such as the B under language (L) corresponding with TV-14.

4.Press the up or down arrow button to change its status back to V. Your child would then be able to watch programs with TV-14 adult language content, but not programs with TV-PG or TV-MA language content.

Note: Only the content theme status corresponding to TV-14 (L) language changes to (V) View. Higher rated content themes, such as that for TV-MA language, do not change.
