Turn on Parental Control

The Parental Control feature allows you to program your TV so that children cannot see certain
programs or channels. The first four choices in the Parental Controls menu involve software inside
your TV (referred to as V-chip). These four software functions may not work on your TV because the
features depend upon special additions to the broadcast signal, which may not be available in your
area. The parental control feature comes turned "Off," so if you choose not to implement it, you can
just ignore it.
