Press the DOWN button to select “V-chip”, then press the RIGHT button.

The “Enter pin” screen will appear. Enter your 4-digit PIN number.

3

Press the DOWN button, to select “TV Guidelines”, then press the RIGHT button.

4

The “TV guidelines” screen will appear. Press the the UP/DOWN buttons to select one of the six age-based categories:

TV-Y	Young children
TV-Y7	Children 7 and over
--------------------------------------
TV-G	General audience
TV-PG	Parental guidance
TV-14	Viewers 14 and over
TV-MA	Mature audience

Note: These categories consist of

two separate groups : TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young children through age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).

The restrictions for these two groups work independently:

If a household includes very young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)

5

At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.

Press the RIGHT button: Depending on your existing setup, a letter “U” or “B” will start blinking. (U= Unblocked, B= Blocked)

While the “U” or ”B” is blinking, press the UP/DOWN buttons to block or unblock the category.

Press the MENU button once to save the TV guidelines. A TV-Rating will be highlighted, and no letters will blink. To exit this screen, press the MENU again. To select a different TV-Rating, press the

UP/DOWN buttons and then repeat the process.

Note 1: The TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings:

FV: Fantasy Violence

D: Sexual suggestive Dialog

L:Adult Language

S: Sexual situation

V: Violence

Note 2: The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive.” For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked

(TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly. (See next section.)
