Setting rating limits
To control the ratings of the programs your family can watch, set rating limits in the Family
prole. Rating limits set in the Family prole apply to the entire DIRECTV
®
System no matter
which user prole is active (as long as the system is locked).
There are various systems used to rate TV programs. Your DIRECTV
®
HD Receiver allows you
to set limits for the following kinds of ratings:
• TV program ratings for the Entire Audience.
• TV program ratings specically for Children.
• TV program ratings for unrated programs (TV rating of none).
• Movie ratings based on the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) ratings.
If you have younger TV viewers in your home, you should set the maximum rating for each of
these program-types to ensure the most effective ratings control.
