based rating level. For example, if you only want your child to watch	Rating
programs that have a TV-G rating and lower (in other words, you want	field
the child to watch TV-G, TV-Y7, and TV-Y), then you need to block out
other programming with higher ratings.
To block programs with higher ratings:

1.First, determine the lowest level rating you do not want the child to watch.

2.Use the left and right arrows to highlight the Rating Field.

3.Use the up and down arrows on the remote to scroll through the age-based rating limits. Keep scrolling until the rating corresponding with the lowest rating you do not want the child to watch appears.
