Viewing Specific Content Themes
1. Determine the content themes you want to change to View.
2. Highlight Rating.
3. Press the right arrow button to select the rating whose content theme you want to change,
such as Block next to language (L) corresponding with TV-14.
4. Press the down arrow button to move the highlight to a particular content theme.
5. Press the OK button to change the status back to View. Your child would then be able to
watch programs with the TV-14 adult language content, but not programs with TV-MA
language content.
Note: Only the content theme status corresponding to TV-14 (L) language changes to
(V) View. Higher rated content themes, such as that for TV-MA language, do not change.
V-Chip Movie Rating Limit
You set movie rating limits by blocking movies rated above a specified rating. How to block
movie ratings and view movie ratings is explained in the next two sections.
To access the V-Chip Movie Rating menu:
1. Press MENU on the remote control (the MAIN MENU appears).
2. Press the down arrow button to select Parental Control.
3. Select US V-Chip.
4. Select V-Chip Movie Ratings.
Blocking Movie Ratings
If you only want your child to watch movies that have a PG rating and lower (in other words,
movies rated PG and G), then you could automatically block out all other movies with higher
ratings.
To block movies:
1. Highlight the rating that is the lowest rating you don’t want the child to watch. (In the
example above, you would highlight the rating status button corresponding to PG-13, since
the highest rating you want the child to watch is PG.)
2. Press the OK button to change from View to Block. All higher ratings automatically change
to Block.
3. If the TV is not locked, you must lock it so the movie rating limits will take effect.
Note: Some movies may be given a Not Rated (NR) rating. After blocking movie ratings,
you must unlock NR separately in order to view movies with an NR rating.
