T

he AutoLock™ feature is an integrat-

ed circuit that receives and processes

data sent by broadcasters, or other pro-
gram providers, that contain program
content advisories. When programmed
by the viewer, a TV with AutoLock™ can
respond to the content advisories and
block program content that may be found
objectionable (such as offensive lan-
guage, violence, sexual situations, etc.).
This is a great feature to censor the type
of viewing children may watch.
AutoLock™ offers various BLOCK-
ING controls from which to choose:
Access Code -
An Access Code must be
set to prevent children from unblocking
questionable or censored programming
set by their parents.
Channel Block - After an access code
has been programmed, you can block
individual channels including the A/V
inputs.
Clear All - Allows you clear all channels
being blocked from your viewing set
with the Channel Block Control.
Block All - Allows you to block ALL
channels and A/V inputs at one time.
Movie Ratings - Certain blocking
options exist which will block program-
ming based on ratings patterned by the
Motion Pictures Association of America.
TV Ratings - Just like the Movie
Ratings, programs can be blocked from
viewing using standard TV ratings set by
TV broadcasters.
