V-GUIDE OPERATION
Use this feature to supervise television viewing for children. This television can be set to auto-
matically block programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view,
including: suggestive dialog, adult language, sexual situations, violence, and fantasy violence.
The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends
upon several conditions: 1) The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating
code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be
properly setup to decode the signal.
The TV guidelines rating icon appears at the upper left hand corner of your TV screen.
