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

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.)

9How to set the FV, V, S, L and D sub-ratings.

First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA (See Step 7), and press the ENTER button. The “ ” symbol will be displayed for each sub-rating. While “ ” is selected, press the ► button to go to a sub rating.

Press the ENTER button to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the process.

The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive”. For example, if you block L sub-rating in TV-PG, then the L sub-ratings in TV-14 and TV-MA will automatically be blocked.

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.
