particular group (i.e., “group 1” or “group 2”). Suppose that the TV-G rating and all of its

TV-MA) and all of their contents (V, S, L, and D) are automatically locked as well.

• MPAA ratings : The particular rating that you have selected will be locked. In addition, more

restrictive ratings will be locked as well.
