Parental Controls and V-Chip

The ciloices in the US V-CHIP and Canada V-CHIP menus involve software inside your TV

(retk:rred to as V-Chip) which allows you to block TV programs and movies based on violence,

sex, or other content you may believe children should not view.

Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.

By default, the software inside your TV is turned "off." For inslructions to turn on V-Chip, go to

page 31.

Note: Parental Control settings are not available for DVI, CMP1,or CMP2inputs.

How V-Chip Works for USA and Canada

V-Chip reads the program's age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence

(V), Adult Language (L), etc.)]. If you have blocked lhe rating and/or content themes that the

program contains, you will receive the message 2his channel has not been approved,for viewing.

Change channel orpress OK to enterpassword and temporaril 3 deactivale the Parental Control.

Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content

themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also Mock out programs

that have been given an Exempt rating, and programs that are considered unrated. The next

several pages have tables showing the "IV age-based ratings and content themes for the US and

Canada.
