How to Set up Restrictions using the MPAA Ratings: G, PG, PG-
13, R, NC-17, X
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) system,
and its main application is for movies. (Eventually, movie videocassettes will be encoded
with MPAA ratings.) When the V-Chip lock is on, the TV will automatically block any
programs that are coded with objectionable ratings (either MPAA or TV-Ratings).

How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.
First, highlight one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 or TV-MA (See Step 4, on previous page).
Next, while the TV-Rating is highlighted, repeatedly press the VOL+ button. This will cycle through the avail-
able sub-ratings (FV,L, S, D or V).
A blinking letter (“U” or “B”) will be displayed for each sub-rating. While the “U” or “B” is blinking, press the
CH ▲ or CH ▼ buttons to change the sub-rating.
Press Menu once to save the TV guidelines. A TV-Rating will be highlighted, and no letters will blink. To exit
this screen, press the Menu button again. To select a different TV-Rating, press the CH ▲ or CH ▼ buttons
and then repeat the process.
Note: 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.

Press the Menu button three times to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section, and set up addi-
tional restrictions based on the MPAA codes).
