How to Set up Restrictions Using the MPAA Ratings: G, PG, PG-, R, NC-, X, NR
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) system and its main application is for movies.
When the V-Chip lock is on, the TV will automatically block any programs that are coded with objectionable ratings
(either MPAA or TV-Ratings).
1. Press the MENU button to display the menu.
Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Setup", then press the ENTER button.
2. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "V-Chip", then press the ENTER button.
The message "Enter PIN" will appear. Enter your 4 digit PIN number.
3. The "V-Chip" screen will appear. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select
"MPAA Rating", then press the ENTER button.
4. The "MPAA Rating" screen will appear. Repeatedly press the ▲ or ▼ button to
select a particular MPAA category. Pressing the ▲ or ▼ button will cycle through
the MPAA categories:
• G: General audience (no restrictions).
• PG: Parental guidance suggested.
• PG-: Parents strongly cautioned.
• R: Restricted. Children under 17 should be accompanied by an adult.
• NC-: No children under age 17.
• X: Adults only.
• NR: Not rated.
Allow all: Press to unlock all TV ratings. / Block all: Press to lock all TV ratings.
While a particular category is selected, press the ENTER button to activate it.
The "
" symbol will be displayed. Press the ENTER button to block or
unblock the category.
The V-Chip will automatically block any category that is "more restrictive".
For example, if you block the "PG-13" category, then "R", "NC-17" and "X" will
automatically be blocked also.
Press the EXIT button to exit.
