Using the TV/VCR Features
Viewing Specific Content Themes
After you block specific content themes, you have the option of going
back and changing some of the content themes back to View (V).
1. Determine the rating you want to change to View (V).
2. Continuously press 1 until the rating status corresponding with
the content theme(s) you want to change appears on screen.
3. To change the content theme to View (V), press the number on
the remote that corresponds with the content theme you want to
view.
4. After you press the number, the B should change to V in the
content status field.
Note that only the content theme status corresponding to the rating
you selected changes to View (V). Higher rated content themes, such
as that for TV-MA language do not change to View (V).
Setting Movie Rating Limits
You set movie rating limits by blocking movies rated above a
specified level. To access the V-CHIP MOVIE RATING LIMIT menu:
1. Press MENU to access the TV/VCR MAIN MENU.
2. Press 4 to display the PARENTAL CONTROLS menu.
3. Press 2 for the V-Chip Movie Rating Limit screen.
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. Determine the lowest level rating you do not want the child to
watch.
2. Continuously press 1 until the lowest rating you do not want the
child to watch appears as the rating. (In the example above, you
would keep pressing 1 until the rating status scrolled to PG-13,
since the highest rating you want the child to watch is PG.)
3. Press 2 to change the status from View to Block. All higher
ratings’ status will automatically change to Block.
4. Press MENU to exit.
• Press RESET to return all rating limits to VIEW.
Remember: You must Lock Parental Controls for rating limits to
take effect.
