Using PARENTAL CONTROL
The PARENTAL CONTROL feature is designed to help parents monitor
what their children watch on television. This section shows you the
different rating systems available and how to set your TV’s rating.
Overview of the Ratings
Once you have become familiar with these rating systems, you should be
ready to set your TV’s rating.
TV RATINGS
The TV ratings are divided into two groups: age-based and
content-based.
The content ratings will increase depending on the level of the age-based
rating. For example, a program with a TV-PG V (Violence) rating may contain
moderate violence, while a TV-14 V (Violence) rating may contain more
intense violence.
