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
Cbntrols 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 [)lock 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.
