For example, click the lock at the intersection of V and TV-MA, and you block all programs that are rated violent and for mature adults. The locks are also assigned to related groups. For example, if you click TV-Yunder All, then TV-Y7will also automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you click TV-Gunder ALL, then all the categories in the young adult group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work similarly. So, if you block the L sub-rating in TV-PG, then the L sub-ratings in TV-14and TV-MAwill automatically be blocked.

To unblock a category, click the lock. To unblock all the categories in a row, click the lock under ALL.

To watch a blocked program, you must enter the Security code when requested.
