• Content ratings can be modified but only in the combinations indicated by V in the table on page 21.

• Changing a lower age rating’s content setting to “BLOCK” automatically changes the same higher age rating’s content setting to “BLOCK” regardless of their previous settings.

• Changing a lower rating’s “AGE” setting to “BLOCK” automatically changes all higher ratings to “BLOCK” regardless of their previous settings.

• For “TV-Y7”, “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA”, if you clear the V in the “AGE” box (unblock) you can still change settings based on content.

Clearing a higher rating’s age or content setting will not clear lower settings. Make sure that all undesired boxes are blocked.
