Blocking Movie Ratings

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.

To block movies:

1.

Highlight the Rating field and press the CHAN and CHAN^ buttons to
find the rating that is the lowest rating you don’t want the child to watch.
(In the example above, you would highlight the rating status button
corresponding to PG-13, since the highest rating you want the child to
watch is PG.)

2.

Press the VOL+ button to highlight the rating Status field. Press the CHAN
and CHAN^ buttons to change the button from View to Block. All higher
ratings automatically change to Block.

3.

Press MENU to return to the menu or exit the screen.

4.

If Parental Controls are not locked, you must lock them so the movie rating
limits will take effect.

Note: Some movies may be given a Not Rated (NR) rating. After blocking
movie ratings, you must set NR to View separately to view NR movies.
