Blocking Movie Ratings
If you only want your child to watch movies that have a
PG rating and lower (in other words, movies rated PG
and G), then you could automatically block out all other
movies with higher ratings.
To block movies:
1. Highlight the Rating field and press the up and down
arrow buttons to find the rating that is the lowest
rating you don't want the child to watch. (In the
example above, you would highlight the rating status
button corresponding to PG-13, since the highest
rating you want the child to watch is PG.)
2. Press the right arrow button to highlight the rating
Status field. Press the up and down arrow buttons to
change the button from View to Block. All higher
ratings automatically change to Block.
3. Press OK to return to the menu or exit the screen.
4. If Parental Controls are not locked, you must lock
them so the movie rating limits will take effect.
Note: Some movies may be given a Not Rated
(NR) rating. After blocking movie ratings, you
must set NR to View separately to view NR
movies.
Viewing Movie Ratings
After you block movie ratings, you have the option of
changing some of the rating status buttons back to View:
1. Highlight the Rating field and press the up and down
arrow buttons to find the rating you want to view.
2. Press the right arrow button to highlight the rating
Status field. Press the up and down arrows to change
the button from Block to View.
For example, if movies with a rating of PG-13 and higher
are blocked, you can change the rating status
corresponding with NC-17. Your child would then be
able to watch all movies with a G, PG, and NC-17 Rating.
3. Press OK to exit the screen, and be sure parental
controls are locked.
