Viewing Movie Ratings

After you block movie ratings, you have the option of changing some of the
rating status buttons back to View:

1.

Highlight the Rating field and press the up and down arrow buttons to find
the rating you want to view.

2.

Press the right arrow button to highlight the rating Status field. Press the up
and down arrows to change the button from Block to View.

For example, if movies with a rating of PG-13 and higher are blocked, you can
change the rating status corresponding with NC-17. Your child would then be
able to watch all movies with a G, PG, and NC-17 Rating.

3.

Press OK to exit the screen, and be sure parental controls are locked.

public announcements, and programs without ratings.

Block
