V-GUIDE (PARENTAL CONTROL)
NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY
WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA’S FCC
V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT
FUNCTION WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE
IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
Use this feature to automatically block programs with
content you deem as inappropriate for children to view.
This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic
V-Chip to interpret MPAA (Motion Picture Association
of America) and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes.
When these codes are detected, the DTV will automat-
ically display or block the program, depending upon
choices you make when setting up the V-Guide system.
V-GUIDE RATINGS—AT-A-GLANCE
MPAA (Movie) RATING
BLOCKED RATINGS (Lock symbol)
TV RATING CONTENT RATING
Content ratings are represented by the initials: FV
(fantasy violence), L (adult language), S (sexual situa-
tions), V (violence), and D (suggestive dialog).
DIGITAL CAPTION
Closed-Captioning is text information transmitted
along with the picture and sound. Turning Caption-
ing ON causes the DTV to open these captions
(digital or analog) and superimpose them on the
screen. (Local broadcasters decide which caption
signals to transmit.)
Digital Cap-
tions can be
changed
using the
menu set-
tings as
shown.
OPERATING TIPS:
■
If Background Opacity is set to transparent,
captions may be difficult to see.
■
Only true EIA 708B Digital Closed-Captions are
affected by all of these settings.
ENERGY (POWER) SAVER
This power saving feature reduces the backlight
brightness level. The power saving function
options:
• OFF – the feature is off and the power con-
sumption is normal.
• LOW – power saving level is low and the back-
light brightness level
is lower than normal.
• HIGH – power saving
level is high and the
backlight brightness
is set to the lowest
level.
OPERATING TIP:
■
The Energy saver settings level will vary depend-
ing on the Picture/Sound mode. For instance, the
energy low level settings may be different
between the manual picture/sound mode (cus-
tomized settings) than the auto mode (factory
settings).
OPERATING TIPS:
■
You can block portions of a DTV rating by choosing
one or more of the Content ratings (D, L, S, and V). By
blocking just the L and S content ratings of
TV-14, for example, TV-14 rated programs with a D
and/or V content rating could still be viewed.
■
V-Guide limits on programming received via the
Analog antenna input, Digital antenna input, Video1
input, and any 480i signals received through the
Component jacks can be controlled by this DTV.
■
V-Guide Limits on digital programming received
through the component jacks and HDMI jacks are
controlled by the external equipment connected to
these jacks. Refer to your external device’s owner’s
manual for instructions on setting V-Guide Limits.
