T he AutoLock™ feature is an integrated
circuit that receives and processes data
sent by broadcasters, or other program
providers, that contain program content advi-
sories. When programmed by the viewer, a
TV with AutoLock™ can respond to the con-
tent advisories and block program content
that may be found objectionable (such as
offensive language, violence, sexual situa-
tions, etc.). This is a great feature to censor
the type of viewing children may watch.
AutoLock™ offers various BLOCKING
controls from which to choose:
Access Code - An Access Code must be
set to prevent children from unblocking ques-
tionable or censored programming set by
their parents.
Channel Block - After an access code has
been programmed, you can block individual
channels including the A/V inputs.
Clear All - Allows you clear all channels
being blocked from your viewing set with the
Channel Block Control.
Block All - Allows you to block ALL chan-
nels and A/V inputs at one time.
Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options
exist which will block programming based
on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures
Association of America.
TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,
programs can be blocked from viewing using
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.
