V-GUIDE (PARENTAL CONTROL) OPTION

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA’S FCC V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT FUNCTION WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic V-Chip to interpret MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes. When these codes are detected, the DTV will automatically display or block the program, depending upon choices

you make when setting up the V-Guide system. Content ratings are represented by the initials: FV (fantasy vio- lence), D (suggestive dialog), L (adult language), S (sexual situations), and V (violence). A rating icon will generally appear at the beginning of a program, see chart on page 19.

This television can be set to block programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view.
