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 sub-ratings (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 previous page), and press the
button. The “ ” symbol will be
displayed for each sub-rating.
While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER
button to go to a sub rating.
Press ENTER
to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating,
press the
or
buttons 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 MENU 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.)
• TV-Y: Young children
• TV-Y7: Children 7 and over
• TV-G: General audience
• TV-PG: Parental guidance
• TV-14: Viewers 14 and over
• TV-MA: Mature audience
