Overview
Parental Control offers the user a wide variety of options and settings that restrict
or “block” the programming that can appear on the TV. Parental Control allows the
user the capability of defining which program rating they consider acceptable, to
the younger or more sensitive viewer. It can be preset and turned either on or off
by the user who specifies a secret 4-number code, the password. General audience
and children viewer blocks can both be programmed into the TV’s memory. Viewer
ratings are specified for both TV and the motion picture industry; both rating sys-
tems should be used, for complete coverage. The ratings are based on the ages of
children. The number of hours blocked are specified. (See following pages.)
To insure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows)
choose a rating for MPAA to restrict movies from the selections on the following
pages. AND choose ratings from the TV Parental Guidelines Rating System also on
the following pages, using the Age Block option for General Audiences and for
Children. In addition to those, you may wish to add additional restrictions from
the Content Block sub menu. See the Parental Control menu and submenus exam-
ples on the following pages.
Things to Consider before Setting Up Parental Control
• Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. For example, if
you choose TV-PG, all more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the
viewer will not be able to see: TV-PG, TV-14 or TV-MA rated programming.
• Do you want to block the auxiliary video source entirely? (Blocks the signal sent
by the equipment, such as a VCR, connected to the TV Audio/Video input jacks;
in the Aux. Sources option.) Or leave unblocked, then choose allowable ratings.
• Block program “Content” based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog,
Bad Language, Sex Scenes, Violence Scenes or Fantasy Violence Scenes; in the
Content Blk option.
• How many hours do you want Parental Control to be active? You can set the
Hours option for up to 99 hours (default is 12 hours).
• Select a password; in the Set Password option. Use the numbered keys on the
remote to set a password. Don’t forget the password.
