Blocking and Unblocking Content by Rating
A channel may sometimes broadcast programs that are meant

for children, and at other times broadcast programs that are

meant for mature audiences. You may not want to block the

channel completely using a channel lock, but you may wish to

block certain programs from being viewed.

When this is the case, you can use the TV’s Rating Block feature

to block content based on its rating.

For a list of content ratings and their definitions, visit

www.tvguidelines.org.

To block or unblock content by its rating:

1. From the PARENTAL CONTROLS menu, highlight the content

type you want to adjust and press OK:
USA TV - USA television program broadcasts.
USA Movie - USA movie broadcasts.
Canadian English - Canadian English television program

broadcasts.
Canadian French - Canadian French television program

broadcasts.

2. For each rating type you want to block or unblock, use the

Up/Down and Left/Right Arrow buttons on the remote to

highlight the rating type and press OK.

3. When the rating type is blocked, the Lock icon appears

locked. Content with this rating and all higher ratings

cannot be viewed.

4. When the rating type is unblocked, the Lock icon appears

unlocked. Content with this rating and all lower ratings can

be viewed.
If you want to block all unrated content, highlight Block

Unrated Shows and use the Arrow buttons on the remote to

select On.

5. When you are finished adjusting the rating level blocks, press

the EXIT button on the remote.

Changing the Parental Control Passcode
If you use the parental controls, you should change the passcode

to prevent children from accessing inappropriate material.

To change the parental control passcode:

1. From the PARENTAL CONTROLS menu, highlight Change PIN

and press OK. The CHANGE PIN menu is displayed.

2. In the New PIN field, use the Number Pad on the remote to

enter your new 4-digit parental control passcode.

3. In the Confirm PIN field, use the Number Pad on the remote

to re-enter your new 4-digit parental control passcode.

4. Write down your new parental control passcode and save it

in a secure location.

5. Press the EXIT button on the remote.

Resetting the Content Locks
To reset the content locks to the factory-default settings:

1. From the Parental Controls menu, highlight RESET LOCKS and

press OK. The TV displays, “Are you sure you want to RESET ALL

LOCKS SETTINGS to the factory defaults?”

2. Highlight Yes and press OK.
