Setting Parental Control

Parental Control

This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC data. It prevents children from watching violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.

Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the MPAA rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and content.

Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines, both should be adjusted for complete control.

Note:

The Parental Control function works only in some modes (for example, in TV or AV mode). If blocked program is selected, then the screen will appear “Rating Blocked”.
