How V- Chip Works for USA and Canada
V-Chip reads the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and
content themes [(Violence (V), Adult Language (L), etc.)]. If you have
blocked the rating and/or content themes that the program contains,
you will receive the message This program is blocked. Press MENU
key to enter password. Go to page 42 for the US and Canada ratings
explanations.
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs
received with no content themes will only be blocked if you block
their age-based rating. You can also block out programs that have
been given a rating of None for TV Ratings, N/A or N/R for Movies,
or E (Exempt) for Canadian ratings. Go to page 32 for unrated
explanation.
Lock/Unlock Parental Controls
The default password for Parental Controls is "0000". You probably want to change the
password to something less obvious, yet easy for you to remember. To change the password,
access the Options menu (lock icon) and press the right arrow to enter the menu. Press the up
or down arrow button to highlight Set Password and press OK. Press 0, 0, 0, and 0 as the old
password and then enter the new password you want to use.
If you forget your password, select Set Password from the Options menu and press OK. Press 3,
4, 4, and then 8. Then enter a new password you want to use.
