TV Ratings
V-CHIP enables parents to prevent their children from watch-
ing inappropriate material on TV.V-CHIP reads the ratings for
most TV programming (except news, sports, unedited movies,
and Emergency Broadcast System signals), then denies viewing
if the program’s rating meets the limitations you select.A
“PROTECTED PROGRAM by ...” message appears on the
screen.You must select a different TV channel or play a Disc
instead.
V-CHIP affects only TV channels. It does not block DVD play.
To block DVD viewing, change the PARENTAL feature. See
pages 34-35.
TV programming is rated by the Motion Picture Association
of America (MPAA) or according to the Television Parental
Guidelines. In order to block any inappropriate programming,
set your limits in both places (MPAA RATING and TV RAT-
ING).
