Rating Options

zThe Content-Based Ratings are linked to the level of the Age-Based Rating. For example, a program with an Age-Based Rating of TV-PG V (Violence) rating may contain moderate violence, while a TV-14 V (Violence) rating may contain more intense violence.

zTo ensure maximum blocking capability, set the Age- Based Ratings.

zIf you block unrated TV programs, be aware that the following types of programs may be blocked: emergency broadcasts, political programs, sports, news, public service announcements, religious programs and weather.
