V-CH I P PARENTAL CONTROLS
The V-Chip Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV so that
children cannot see certain programs. When you select V-Chip Parental
Controls, you will be prompted to enter your password if controls are locked,
or to remember to lock controls if unlocked.
The first three choices in the Parental Controls menu involve software inside
your TV (dubbed V-Chip) which allows you to block TV programs and movies
based on violence, sex, or other content you believe children should not
view. Once you block programs, you or other adults can unblock programs
with a password.
When turned "on," the software reads a code that most broadcasters send
with programs. That code tells the V-Chip the program's age-based rating
and content themes, if you have blocked the rating or content themes that
the program contains, you will receive the message, "This program is
blocked. Change channel or press DISPLAY to enter password." When you
tune to that program.
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes or age-based
ratings. Rated programs received with no content themes will only be
blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block movies with a
rating of "Not Rated" and "unrated" TV programs.
