^he AutoLockfeature is an,inte­
grated circuit that receives and
processes data sent by broadcast­
ers, or other program providers,
that contain program content advi­
sories. When programmed by the
viewer, a TV with AutoLock can
respond to the content advisories
arid block program content that
may be found objectionable (such
as offensive language, violence,
sexual situations, etc.). This is a
great feature to censor the type of
viewing children may watch.
Over the next few pages you *U
learn how to block channels and
certain rated programming. Below
is a brief explanation of some terms
and ratings you will find in the
AutoLock feature.
AutoLock offers various
BLOCKING controls from which
to choose:
Access Code: An Access Code
must be set to prevent children irom
unblocking questionable or cen­
sored programming set by their par­
ents.
Channel Block: After an access
code has been programmed, you
can block individual channels
including the
PJ\
inputs.
Clear All: Allows you clear all
channels being blocked iix>m your
viewing set with the Channel Block
Control.
Block All: Allows you to block
ALL channels and
hN
inputs at
one time.
Movie Ratings: Certain blocking
options exist which will block pro­
gramming based on ratings pat­
terned 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.
