T

he Smart Lock feature is an integrated

circuit that receives and processes data

sent by broadcasters, or other program
providers, that contain program content advi-
sories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV
with Smart Lock can respond to the content
advisories and block program content that
may be found objectionable (such as offensive
language, violence, sexual situations, etc.).
This is a great feature to censor the type of
viewing children may watch.

Smart Lock offers various BLOCKING
controls from which to choose:

Access Code - An Access Code must be set
to prevent children from unblocking question-
able or censored programming set by their
parents.

Block Enable - After an access code has
been programmed, you can block program-
ming depending on the received rating and
user setting.

Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options
exist which will block programming based on
ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures
Association of America.

TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,
programs can be blocked from viewing using
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.
