Using the TV’s Features
24 Chapter 4
Future Rating Region
You might notice an option in your Parental control menu that wasn't there before. This is because broadcasters have the
capability to add a new rating system for TV programs. These ratings let you define additional parameters for parental
controls. This option and its name are dependent on the content acquired from the broadcaster.
Note: These ratings are available only if the broadcaster is sending them.
Additional Features
There are additional features available unrelated to Parental Controls. These features can be found in other menus.
Calendar
Use the calendar feature to display the current month and year, just like a calendar. The current month and year is displayed
if you've set it correctly in the Date option in the Time menu.
1. Press the MENU button on the remote. Highlight Time and press OK.
2. Highlight Calendar and press OK.
3. To display a different month and year, highlight the selection and press the left or right arrow button to make a change.
Screen Formats
Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW button on your remote to see
if a different format is available for the video you are viewing. The format changes as you press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW
buttons and the format type is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Lock Time Menu
Turn this option on to lock the Time menu so that the time settings can't
be changed by someone, like a young child. Press OK to place a check
mark in the box to lock the Time menu. When you access the Time
menu you'll need to enter a password to view the channel.
Blocking Unrated/Exempt Programs
The Unrated/Exempt option lets you decide if programs that the
V-Chip recognizes as unrated or exempt can be viewed. Unrated TV
programs may include news, sports, political, religious, local and
weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and
programs without ratings. The Exempt option applies to both USA and
Canadian unrated programs and Canadian programs rated E.
View All unrated programs are available.
Lock All unrated programs are not available.
Note: You must remember to lock Parental controls for rating
limits to take effect.
Press the down arrow button to highlight Unrated/Exempt. Then press
the right arrow button to toggle between View and Lock.
