5. At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.

Press the ENTER button. Depending on your existing setup, the “ ” symbol will
be selected. (Blank = Unblocked, = Blocked)
While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER button to block or unblock the category.
To select a different TV-Rating, press the …

… or †

† button and then repeat the process.

Allow all: Press to unlock all TV ratings. / Block all: Press to lock all TV ratings.

The TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to

change any of the following sub-ratings:

FV: Fantasy violence / D: Sexually suggestive dialog / L: Adult language /
S: Sexual situation / V: Violence

The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive”. For example,

if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the

TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG,

TV-14, and TV-MA). The subratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly. (See next section.)

6. How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.

First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA
(See Step 4, on page 54), and press the ENTER button.
The “ ” symbol will be displayed for each sub-rating.
While “ ” is selected, press the √ button to go to a sub rating.
Press the ENTER to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating,
press the …

… or †

† button and then repeat the process.

The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”.
For example, if you block “L” sub-rating in TV-PG, then the “L” sub-ratings in TV-14 and
TV-MA will automatically be blocked.

7. Press the EXIT button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section,

and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)

These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7
(young children through age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very
young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for
each age group. (See next step.)
