MPAA Rating Limit

The MPAA menu lets you decide which movies can and can’t be viewed according to the age-
based rating of the MPAA. The TV/VCR/DVD locks and unlocks the parental control settings
using a password you select.

If you only want your child to watch movies that have a PG rating and lower (in other words,
movies rated PG and G), then you could automatically block out all other movies with higher
ratings.

1. Press TV MENU on the remote to display the main MENU.

2.

Use the up or down arrow to select V-CHIP BLOCK and press OK on the
remote.

3.

The INPUT SECRET NO. menu appears. Use number buttons (0-9) to enter a
number and press OK. Repeat entering numbers until you have entered
four numbers.

Notes: Be sure to remember your number. If you have entered a number
previously, enter that same number.

If you forget your password, unplug the TV/VCR/DVD. Press and hold both the VOL
up and STOP/EJECT buttons on the front panel while you plug in the TV/VCR/DVD.
Release the buttons after approximately two seconds. This resets the password.
