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, select 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 selected , repeatedly press the
√√
button. This will cycle through the available
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
▲ or ▼button to change the sub-rating.
Press the
MENU button once to save the TV guidelines. A TV-Rating will be selected (BLUE), and no letters
will blink. To exit this screen, press the MENU button again. To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲or
▼ button 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.
