Smart Lock - Magnavox 20MF Series User Manual

T he SMART Lock feature is an
integrated circuit that receives and
processes data sent by
broadcasters, or other program
providers, that contain program
content advisories.When programmed
by the viewer, a TV with SMART Lock
can respond to the content
advisories and block program content
that may be found objectionable (such
as offensive language, violence, sexual
situations, etc.). This is a great feature
to censor the type of viewing children
may watch.
SMART Lock offers various BLOCKING
controls from which to choose:
Password - A password must be
set to prevent children from unblocking
questionable or censored programming set
by their parents.
Block Enable - After a password code has
been programmed, you can block
programming depending on the received
rating and user setting.
Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options
exist which will block programming based
on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures
Association of America.
TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,
programs can be blocked from viewing using
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.

for example) or you have forgotten
the code, you can always get in by
inputting the default code.
