TV Parental Guidelines
You can block TV programs depending on their rating. This function allows you to control what
your children are watching.
TV-Y: Young children / TV-Y: Children 7 and over / TV-G: General audience /
TV-PG: Parental guidance / TV-: Viewers 14 and over / TV-MA: Mature audience
ALL: Lock all TV ratings. / FV: Fantasy violence / V: Violence / S: Sexual situation /
L: Adult Language / D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog
The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are more restrictive. For
example, if you block TV-Y category, then TV-Y 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- and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together
similarly.
The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are ‘More restrictive’. For example, if you block
L sub-rating in TV-
PG, then the L sub-ratings in TV- and TV-MA will automatically be blocked.
MPAA Rating
You can block movies depending on their MPAA rating. The Motion Picture Association of
America(MPAA) has implemented a rating system that provides parents or guardians with
advance information on which films are appropriate for children.

PG: Parental guidance suggested.
PG-: Parents strongly cautioned.
R: Restricted. Children under 17 should be accompanied by an adult.
NC-: No children under age 17.

The V-Chip will automatically block any category that is ‘More restrictive’. For example, if you block the
PG- category, then
R, NC- and X will automatically be blocked also.
