use CH^/v to highlight the lowest unacceptable rating. Then highlight
the Rating Status field and press the CH ^/v buttons to change the
status from View to Block. All higher ratings will automatically change
to Block.

Parental Controls menu. Press the Vol + to select LOCKED. Enter your

prompted to enter it again to confirm). The word UNLOCKED will flash
to remind you that the Parental Controls are not LOCKED.

Viewing Movie Ratings

After you block movie ratings, you have the option of changing some of the
ratings back to View.
• To view movie ratings: Highlight the Rating field and use the
CH^/v buttons to find the rating you want to view. Then use VOL+ to
highlight the Rating Status field, and use CH^/v to change the status to
View.

TIP
When you change the status of an
age-based rating to Block, the
system will automatically block that
rating and all of its content themes
and all higher ratings and their
content themes. When you change
the status of a Content Theme to B,
the system will automatically block
that content theme in the current
rating and in all higher ratings.
Only the content theme status
corresponding to the current age-
based rating changes to View (V).
Higher rated content themes do not
change.
