Viewing Movie Ratings
After you block movie ratings, you have the option of changing some of the
rating status buttons back to View:
1. Highlight the Rating field and press the CHAN and CHAN^ buttons to
find the rating you want to view.
2. Press the VOL+ button to highlight the rating Status field. Press the CHAN
and CHAN^ buttons to change the button from Block to View.
For example, if movies with a rating of PG-13 and higher are blocked, you can
change the rating status corresponding with NC-17. Your child would then be
able to watch all movies with a G, PG, and NC-17 Rating.
3. Press MENU to exit the screen, and be sure parental controls are locked.
