When you change the status of a rating to Block,
the system will automatically block higher ratings
and all corresponding content themes.
Blocking Age-Based
Ratings
You can automatically
block all program ratings above a specified
age-based
rating level. For example,
if you only want your child to watch programs
that
have a TV-G rating and lower (in other words, you want the child to watch
TV-G, TV-Y7, and TV-Y), then you need to block out other programming
with
higher ratings.
_Ibblock programs with higher ratings:
1.
First, delcrmine
the lowest level rating you don't want the child to watch
(see chart of age-based
ratings on next page).
2.
Press the left and right arrow buttons to highlight the RaHn/4 field.
3.
Press the tip and down arrow bullons on the remote to scroll through the
age-based
rating limits. Keep scrolling until the rating corresponding
with
the lowest rating you do not want the child to watch appears on the screen.
In the example
discussed
above, you would scroll through the Ratin_,gfield
until TV-PG appears, since the highest rating you want the child to watch is
TV-G.
