he AutoLock™ feature receives and processes

data sent by broadcasters or other program

providers that contain program content advisories.

When programmed by the viewer, a TV with

AutoLock™ can respond to the content advisories

and block program content that may be found

objectionable (such as offensive language, violence,

sexual situations, etc.). This is a great feature to

censor the type of programming children may

watch.
In the AutoLock™ section, you’ll learn how to

block channels and programming that is not

rated, is unrated, or has no rating. You will also

find out how to turn these blocking features

ON or OFF. Following are brief explanations

of some terms and ratings related to the

AutoLock™ feature.
AutoLock™ offers various Blocking Options

from which to choose:
BLOCKING:

The BLOCKING control is what

can be thought of as the “master switch” for

AutoLock™. This control affects the settings you

have chosen for blocking programs according

to movie ratings or TV ratings, or for blocking

programs that have no rating or are unrated.

When the BLOCKING control is OFF, the

blocking or censoring of programs is disabled.

When the BLOCKING control is ON, blocking

will occur according to the settings you have

chosen.
NO RATING:

ALL programming with no

content advisory data can be blocked if NO

RATING is set to ON.
Programming that has No Rating is not encoded

with any rating information from the MPAA

or the Parental Guidelines. Any programming

could fall into this category.
You also can block individual channels or

block programming

based on ratings of the

MPAA and TV broadcasters. (See a description

of the ratings on this page.)
