Mpaa Rating Limit - RCA B27TF680 User Manual

MPAA Rating Limit

The MPAA menu lets you decide which movies can and can't be viewed according to the age-
based rating of the MPAA. The TV/VCR/DVD locks and unlocks the parental control settings
using a password you select.
If you only want your child to watch movies that have a PG rating and lower (in other words,
movies rated PG and G), then you could automatically block out all other movies with higher
ratings.
