Please be aware of the following: The locks use the codes 
that the original program providers assigned to the 
programs. The actual content of the programs may differ 
from their assigned ratings. No rating system can guarantee 
that all objectionable material is screened out. Like all other 
locks, these locks are only in effect when the receiver is 
locked. You can lock any program, including pay per view 
programs. The locks built into some televisions do not 
apply to satellite programs. Television program ratings 
differ from movie ratings.
Do the following to set program locks based on rating codes. Then, when 
the receiver is locked, only someone who knows the password can watch 
these programs. 
1.
Press the
MENU
button.
2.
Select the
Locks
option.
If the receiver is locked, enter the password using the 
number pad buttons. The receiver displays stars (*) as you 
enter the digits of the password. As soon as you enter the 
fourth digit of the password, the receiver highlights the 
OK
option.
Press the
SELECT
button.

Ratings Locks
option.
Highlight the rating that corresponds to the lowest 
acceptable audience age. Press the

: All ratings that are more restrictive than the selected rating are
also selected. For example, if you lock PG-13 rated programs, then all 
programs with the R, NC-17, and NR/AO ratings are also locked.

ratings.
