Blocking Programming with Movie Ratings
T here are two types of ratings for Parental
Control. One is based on movie industry ratings.
The other is based on TV industry ratings. Both can
be used to censor programming.
Let’s first look at the MPAA Rating options of
Parental Control.
1 Press MENU to show the on-screen
menu.
2 Press VOL+ or VOL- to highlight SET.
3 Press CH+ or CH- to highlight
PARENTAL CONTROL.
4 Press VOL+ or VOL- to display the
SECRET CODE screen.
5 Press the Number buttons to enter
your four-digit secret code.
6 Press CH+ or CH- to highlight MPAA
RATING.
7 Press VOL+ or VOL- to display the
MPAA ratings (G, PG, PG-13, R,
NC-17, and X).
8 Press CH+ or CH- to select the rating
you want to block.
9 Press VOL+ or VOL- to block (or
unblock) the rating. A checkmark will
appear to the left of the rating when
blocked.
When you block a rating, higher ratings
are blocked automatically. To unblock all
the ratings, select CLEAR.
10 Press TV/AV/EXIT to remove the
menu.
Blocking any rating (ON) will
block all the higher ratings
automatically. For example, if
R is blocked manually, NC 17
and X will be blocked auto-
matically.
To turn a rating OFF, set
each rating individually.
