Note:

“DOWNLOADABLE RATING“ will be available when the unit receives a digital broadcast using the new rating system.

When you select a rating and set it to “BLOCK”, the higher ratings will be blocked automatically. The lower ratings will be available for viewing.

When you set the highest rating to “VIEW”, all ratings turn to “VIEW” automatically.

If the “PROTECTED PROGRAM” message appears during your TV viewing, change to a channel that is not blocked. Then, you can access “V-CHIP SETUP” menu and change the setting to allow all TV viewing.

To block any inappropriate programming, set your limits in both “TV RATING” and “MPAA RATING”.

The V-chip setting will be retained after a power failure (except the access code reverts to 0000).
