FEATURES AND CONTROLS

V-CHIP UNRATED PROGRAM BLOCK

Selecting this option lets you decide if programs that the V-Chip recognizes as “unrated” can be viewed. Note that “unrated” TV programs may include news, sports, political, religious, local and weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and programs without ratings.

View All unrated programs are available.

Block All unrated programs are not available.

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of unrated program viewing. If you do not, the limit will not take effect.

CHANNEL BLOCK

Selecting this option lets you decide what channels can be viewed. View Makes the selected channel viewable.

Block The front panel and remote control CH (channel) buttons will tune only to channels that you have marked as View. The remote will still tune to the blocked channel if you use the digits to access the channel, but the channel will be blocked.

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of Channel Block. If you do not, the channel block will not take effect.

FRONT PANEL BLOCK

Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front panel. The remote still tunes to any channel. Front Panel Block can keep children from watching TV when the parent is not present and keep small children from playing with the buttons.

(When using this as a Parental Control method, you should remove access to any remote capable of controlling the television while you have the front panel blocked.)

Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status. If you do not, the front panel block will not take effect.

LOCK/UNLOCK PARENTAL CONTROLS

Selecting this option lets you lock and unlock parental controls settings using a password.

If you do not lock parental controls, none of the settings for V- Chip, Channel Block, or Front Panel Block will take effect.

If you forget your password, press and hold TV on the remote and the MENU button on the television simultaneously for 3 seconds. Parental controls will then unlock and you can re-enter a password via Lock Parental Controls.
