The PARENTAL CONTROL menu and V-CHIP
The Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV/DVD so that children cannot see certain
programs and channels.
The Parental Controls menu involve software inside your TV/DVD (V-Chip) which allows you to
"block" TV programs and movies based on violence, sex, or other content you think children should
not view. It lets you program your TV so it will not display certain programs. You can "unbloek"
programs by entering
a password.
When Parental Controls is turned ON the software
reads a code that most broadcasters send with
programs. That code tells the software the program's age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and
content themes (Violence (V), Adult Language (L), etc.).
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content
themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out programs
that have been given a rating of "Not Rated," and programs that are considered "unrated"
because
no code has been sent by the broadcaster.
