Parental Controls and V-Chip

The Parental Controls menu allows you to program your TV so that children
cannot see certain programs, channels, or use the front panel controls.
The first three choices in the Parental Controls menu involve software inside your
TV (referred to as V-Chip) which allows you to block TV programs and movies
based on violence, sex, or other content you may believe children should not
view. In other words, it lets you program your TV so it won't display certain
programs.
Once you block programs, you or other adults can unblock programs by
entering a password.
By default, the software inside your TV is turned "off," so if you don't want to
use this feature, you can just ignore it.

Important Note About Parental Controls

Once you've locked Parental Controls, the TV blocks the picture of all channels
and programs that you've set as blocked. The screen to the left appears when
you try to tune to a program or channel that's blocked.
To temporarily unlock Parental Controls when you see the screen to the left:
1. Press DISPLAY on your remote control.
Important: The on-screen display refers to an "INFO" button, which the
remote that comes with your TV does not have. Use the DISPLAY button
instead.
2. Use the number buttons on your remote to enter your password. If you
want to cancel, press CLEAR.
3. Once you've successfully entered your password, press CLEAR to exit.
The Parental Controls function remains unlocked until the next time you turn
on your TV.
