The PARENTAL CONTROL menu and V-CHIP

The Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV/DVD so that children cannot see certain programs and channels.

The Parental Controls menu involve software inside your TV/DVD (V-Chip) which allows you to “block” TV programs and movies based on violence, sex, or other content you think children should not view. It lets you program your TV so it will not display certain programs. You can “unblock” programs by entering a password.

When Parental Controls is turned ON the software reads a code that most broadcasters send with programs. That code tells the software the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes (Violence (V), Adult Language (L), etc.).

Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out programs that have been given a rating of “Not Rated,” and programs that are considered “unrated” because no code has been sent by the broadcaster.

The TV age-based ratings are listed in the table on the following page.

PASSWORD

You need a password to enter the PARENTAL CONTROL menu. The initial password is 1234. The first time you use

 

this menu you should change the password. If you forget your password, please contact the service center.

 

When you enter the correct password, the PARENTAL GUIDE menu is displayed.

PARENTAL GUIDE

Audio performance is another key characteristic of RCA's offerings. Many models come with integrated stereo speakers that provide reasonably good sound quality for everyday viewing. Some units may also support advanced audio technologies like Dolby Digital, which enhances the sound experience when watching movies.

RCA TV/DVD combos are designed with user convenience in mind. Most include a remote control for easy navigation through channels and DVD functions. Additionally, the interface typically features straightforward menus, making it simple for users to access settings, adjust picture and sound preferences, and navigate DVD content.
