Note:

The additional rating system can only be downloaded one time. You will not be able to download any updates to the rating system should such updates become available.

The additional rating system is not designed, transmitted, or controlled by the TV or Toshiba, nor is the availability of an additional rating system determined or controlled by Toshiba. Similarly, the rating of programs in an additional rating system is not determined, transmitted, or controlled by the TV or Toshiba.

The additional rating system is an evolving technology; therefore, availability, content, and format may vary.
