Please be aware of the following: The locks use the codes that the
original program providers assigned to the programs. The actual
content of the programs may differ from their assigned ratings.
No rating system can guarantee that all objectionable material is
screened out. Like all other locks, these locks are only in effect
when the receiver is locked. You can lock any program,
including pay per view programs. The locks built into some
televisions do not apply to satellite programs. Television
program ratings differ from movie ratings.
Do the following to set program locks based on rating codes. Then, when
the receiver is locked, only someone who knows the password can watch
these programs.
1. Press the MENU button.
2. Select the Locks option.
If the receiver is locked, enter the password using the
number pad buttons. The receiver displays stars (*) as you
enter the digits of the password. As soon as you enter the
fourth digit of the password, the receiver highlights the
OK option.
Press the SELECT button.
3. Select the Ratings Locks option.
Highlight the rating that corresponds to the lowest
acceptable audience age. Press the SELECT button to lock
the highlighted rating.
Note : All ratings more restrictive than the selected rating are also
selected. For example, if you lock PG-13 rated programs, then all
programs with the R, NC-17, and NR/AO ratings are also locked.
4. Select the expanded rating code(s), if you want to also lock these
ratings.
5. To unlock a rating code, highlight the code and press SELECT.
6. Select the Save option to save the changes.
7. If the receiver is not locked, you must lock it to put the locks you just
created into effect.
