How to Reset the TV after the V-Chip Blocks a Channel (“Emergency Escape”)

If the TV is tuned to a restricted channel, the V-Chip will block it. The screen will go blank and the following message will appear: “Excessive rating.”

To resume normal viewing, tune to a different channel using the number buttons. Under certain conditions (depending on the rating of the local TV programs) the V-Chip might lock out all the channels. In this case, use the V-Chip button for an “emergency escape”:

Press the Menu button. Move the joystick down to select “SETUP”, then press the joystick to enter. Move the joystick down to select “V-chip”, then press the joystick to enter. Enter your PIN number, and move the joystick right to temporarily disable the V-Chip Lock.
