shows with a TV-PG rating. If you do, then the TV also blocks shows with coarse language in the higher ratings (TV-14 and TV-
MA). Subsequently unblocking coarse language in TV-14 ratings does not unblock coarse language in TV-MA programs, but it
does unblock coarse language in TV-PG programs.
To block TV shows based on US television ratings:
1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter your PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > TV ratings. Choose among the following settings:
Entire ratings – Highlight the rating you want to block, and then navigate to the [RIGHT] and select the first option that
blocks the entire rating level (and all higher rating levels).
Individual content types – Highlight the rating that contains the content type you want to block, and then select the
content types you want to block from among those listed. Remember that blocking a content type in one rating blocks the
equivalent content type in all higher rating levels.
Blocking based on US movie ratings
Most movies in the US are rated by the Motion Picture Association of America, or MPAA, so the ratings are known as MPAA
ratings. TV broadcast signals carry movie rating data that enables parental controls to block shows that parents don't want
others to see. The ratings are:
• G – General audiences
• PG – Parental guidance suggested
• PG-13 – Parents strongly cautioned for children age 13 or younger
• R – Restricted
• NC-17 – Not for age 17 or younger
Unlike US TV ratings, there are no individual content types within the ratings. But like TV ratings, blocking movies with a
particular rating also blocks movies with a higher rating, and unblocking movies with a particular rating also unblocks movies
with a lower rating.
Tip: Blocking movies with an NC-17 rating also blocks programs with the now-obsolete X rating, which can still occur in the
program data of older movies.
To block movies based on MPAA ratings:
1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter your PIN.
2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Movie ratings.
3. Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select one rating level, and all higher levels are automatically
blocked.
Blocking based on other ratings
Your TV can block programs having ratings that had not been defined when the TV was manufactured. It does this by detecting
a new Rating Region Table in a program and then downloading the new table and displaying its rating in the Parental controls.
When the TV downloads a new Rating Region Table, it adds a new option to the list of rating types: Other ratings. If you see
this option in the Parental controls screen, you have tuned to a station that has implemented a new rating table. Once the
new rating table has been downloaded to the TV, it remains in the TV until it is factory reset, and you can configure blocking
based on the new ratings.
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
