if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the
TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG,
TV-14, and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly.
(See next section.)
6. How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.

TV-MA will automatically be blocked.
7. Press the EXIT button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section,
and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)
➢
These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7
(young children through age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very
young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for
each age group. (See next step.)
