P.Lock (Parental Lock/V-Chip) Setup
The P.LOCK options control the built-in V-Chip feature of the television. TV broadcasts include a
signal that classifies the contents of the program. When this feature is activated, the TV will detect
this signal and block any programs that are rated higher than what you have set.
There are two different rating systems: MPAA (movies) and TV (television broadcasts).

intensity of the sub-category.

V: Violence
To change these settings, you must first use the numeric keypad to enter the P.LOCK code.
