Parental Controls and V-Chip
The choices in the USA Parental Controls and Canada Parental
Controls menus involve software inside your TV (referred to as V-Chip)
which allows you to block TV programs and movies. TV programs can
be blocked by age-based ratings, such as TV-MA, which is explained
on page 22. If available, TV programs can also be blocked by content,
such as adult language (L). This is explained on page 22. Movies can
only be blocked by age-based ratings. This is explained on page 23.
Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a
password.
By default, the software inside your TV is turned off or unlocked. For
instructions to lock V-Chip, go to the next page.
Note: Parental control settings are not available for HDMI or
COMPONENT inputs.
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 32 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 23 for unrated explanation.
