Parental Guide
This feature allows parents to block certain programs from being viewed, based
on the programs’ rating. In order to access this menu, you must first enter a
pass code. The factory default is 6688. With “Parental Guide” highlighted in red,
use the numeric keypad to enter the pass code. If this turns the Parental Guide
“Off,” press the right arrow key until Parental Guide in “On.” With Parental
Guide “On,” press the right arrow key to access the TV Rating grid.
TV Rating Grid
Using the up & down arrow keys to navigate between the ratings, press
the “Menu” key to block out a particular rating completely. Or, if you wish,
press the down arrow key to highlight an individual rating (anywhere a “U”
is displayed in the middle of the grid.) Pressing the “Menu” key with one
of these individual ratings highlighted will block only programs that
feature that particular aspect. See the TV rating diagram at right for an
example. TV ratings are defined in the charts below:
MPAA Rating Grid
Press the right arrow key while in the TV Rating grid to access this grid.
Use the up & down arrow keys to navigate between the MPAA ratings.
Pressing the “Menu” key with a rating highlighted will block that particular
rating from being shown on this TV. A “B” will show in red next to the
blocked rating. Please note that blocking a lower rating (for example, PG)
will block all higher ratings (PG-13, R, NC-17, X.)
Pass Code Menu
This menu allows you to change the access code for the Parental Guide
functions of the TV set. Pressing the “Menu” key when Pass Code
Control is highlighted. This will turn on or off the Pass Code function. With
the Pass Code function ON, you can also change the Pass Code. Use
the down arrow key to highlight “Pass Code,” then enter the new Pass
Code using the numeric keypad. Press the left arrow key when finished.
1. The factory default pass code of 6688 is also the override code, in case
you forget your new pass code.
2. The factory defaults have TV-MA and MPAA-X ratings blocked.
