Initial Setup

When a viewer attempts to watch a guarded channel, the following message appears:

To watch a channel that you have locked, enter the
Lock Code using the 10 key pad.
If the wrong code is entered, the message
“INVALID LOCK CODE!” will flash on the screen.

The channel cannot be accessed until the correct code
is entered.

Notes:

• Once a channel has been unlocked, it will remain unlocked until the television is turned off.

• See also “Set Lock Code”, page 33.

You can use US V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from the United States), Canadian
V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from Canada), and movie ratings. You may use

V-Chip

Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block channels or content
that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines.
V-Chip has no effect on video signals from DVD discs or Camcorder connection.

Note: Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set
up V-CHIP ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 28 for information on
how to block unrated programs.

Note (for Canadian viewers): The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for
the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.
