Blocking Specifi c Content Themes
You can block programs based on their content. (Content is
represented by the D, L, S, V and FV on your screen.) When you block
a content theme for a particular rating, you automatically block that
content theme for higher rated programs as well.
To block program content:
1. Determine the content themes you want to block.
2. Press the down arrow button to select the age-based rating you
want to change.
3. Press the right arrow button to highlight a particular content
theme.
4. Press the OK button to change its status to the lock icon, or
block. (In the example to the left, you block the language (L)
corresponding with TV-14. The language for TV-MA is blocked as
well).
Notes: Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes
or age-based ratings.
5. To lock the settings, exit the Parental Control menu or menu
system and the password screen appears. Enter your password
and press OK. If you exit the menu system without entering your
password, the settings you changed won’t take effect.
