V-Chip allows you to Block or Allow pro-

grams based upon rating signals sent by the
broadcasting station. The TV comes from
the factory with the V-Chip in the Off setting.

You can turn the V-Chip on within the V-Chip

Menu or you can use the V-CHIP button
on the remote control to conveniently turn
the V-Chip on or off. The factory preset is

TV-PG for TV ratings or PG for movie ratings,

allowing only programs rated TV-PG/PG or

to various TV ratings and lettered categories
or movie ratings. After changing channels
or devices, there may be up to a 5 second
delay before the V-Chip lock takes effect.
