V-Chip Unrated/Exempt Block
The V-Chip Unrated/Exempt option lets you decide if programs that the V-Chip recognizes as
unrated can be viewed. Unrated TV programs may include news, sports, political, religious,
local and weather programs, emergency bulletins, public announcements, and programs
without ratings. The V-Chip Unrated/Exempt option applies to both US and Canadian unrated
programs and Canadian programs rated E.
View All unrated programs are available.
Block All unrated programs are not available.
Note: You must remember to lock Parental Controls for rating limits to take effect.
Press the down arrow to highlight V-Chip Unrated/Exempt. Then press the right arrow to toggle
between View and Block.
Front Panel Block
Selecting this option lets you block (disable) or unblock (enable) the TV’s front panel buttons.
The remote still tunes to any channel. Front Panel Block can:
• Keep children from watching TV when the parent is not present.
• Keep young children from playing with the buttons on the TV.
(When using this as a Parental Control method, you should remove access to any remote that
is capable of operating the television while you have the front panel blocked.)
Don’t forget to lock the TV after you disable Front Panel Block (box has check mark). If you do
not, the front panel block will not take effect.
Note: If power to the TV is lost for more than an hour, the buttons become unblocked.
To temporarily override front panel block, make sure no menus are displayed on-screen.
Simultaneously press and hold the MENU button on the TV’s side panel and CLEAR on the
remote for approximately 10 seconds.
Channel Block
Selecting this option lets you decide the channels you want to block. Use the number buttons
to enter the channel you want to view or block, then press OK.
If the Block box doesn’t have a check mark, the selected channel is viewable. If the box has a
check mark and you tune to a blocked channel, you need to enter a password to view the
channel.
Don’t forget to lock parental controls after you change the status of Channel Block. If you don’t
lock Parental Controls, the channel block will not take effect.
