New Region Rating Tables can have independent rating levels, or rating levels that interact in the same ways as the built-
in US TV and MPAA Movie ratings.
Tip: If your TV downloads a new Region Rating Table, you'll have to experiment with its settings to understand
how to use it.
Blocking based on Canadian English ratings
Canadian-English language and third-language programs that are broadcast in Canada are rated by the Action Group on
Violence on Television, or AGVOT. TV broadcast signals carry rating data that enables parental controls to block shows
that parents don't want others to view based on content containing violence, language, sex, or nudity. The ratings are:
• C – Children under 8 years
• C8 – Children 8 years and older
• G – Generally suitable for all age groups
• PG – Parental guidance suggested for viewers under 14 years
• 14+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 14 years
• 18+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 18 years
Blocking content with a particular rating also blocks content with a higher rating, and unblocking content with a particu-
lar rating also unblocks movies with a lower rating.
To block programs based on AGVOT ratings:
1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Canadian English ratings.
3. Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select one rating level, and all higher levels are automati-
cally blocked.
Blocking based on Canadian French ratings
Canadian-French language programs that are broadcast in Canada are rated by the Régie du cinéma du Québec. TV
broadcast signals carry rating data that enables parental controls to block shows that parents don't want others to view

• 8+ – Viewers 8 years and older
• 13+ – Viewers 13 years and older
• 16+ – Viewers 16 years and older
