Press the

• TV-Y: Young children
• TV-Y7: Children 7 and over
• TV-G: General audience
• TV-PG: Parental guidance
• TV-14: Viewers 14 and over
• TV-MA: Mature audience
5. At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.
Press the ENTER
button. Depending on your existing setup, the “ ” symbol
will be selected. (Blank = Unblocked, = Blocked)
While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER
button to block or unblock the
category.
To select a different TV-Rating, press the
▲ or ▼

process.
Allow all: Press to unlock all TV ratings. / Block all: Press to lock all TV ratings.
The TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options.
See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings:
FV: Fantasy violence / D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog / L: Adult Language /
S: Sexual situation / V: Violence
The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more
restrictive”. For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will
automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the
categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and
TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly.(See next section.)
6. How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.
First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 or TV-MA
(See Step 4) and press the
►
button. The “ ” symbol will be displayed for each
sub-rating.
While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER
button to go to a sub rating.
Press ENTER
to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating, press the
▲ or ▼
button and then repeat the process.
• ALL: Lock all TV ratings.
• FV: Fantasy violence
• V: Violence
• S: Sexual situation
• L: Adult Language
• D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog
The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”.
For example, if you block “L” sub-rating in TV-PG, then the “L” sub-ratings in
TV-14 and TV-MA will automatically be blocked.
7. Press the EXIT button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section,
and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)
These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young
children through age 7) and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household
includes very young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must
be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)
