Viewing Age-Based Ratings
After you block age-based ratings, you have the option of changing
some of the ratings back to View.
1. Determine which blocked rating you want to view.
2. Use the left and right arrows to highlight the Rating Field.
3. Use the up and down arrows to select the rating whose status is
Block.
4. Press the right arrow to move the yellow highlight to the rating
status field.
5. Press the up or down arrows to toggle between View and Block.
Note that the content status fields corresponding to the unblocked
rating become View as well. They and the age-based rating status
are the only fields that automatically change back to View when
you complete this process.
Blocking Specific Content Themes
You can block programs based on their content. (Content is
represented by the D, L, S, V, and FV on your screen. See the
beginning of this section for details.) When you block a content
theme for a particular rating, you automatically block that content
theme for higher rated programs as well.
For example, if you do not want your child to watch programs that
have adult language (L) rated TV-PG or higher, then you could block
out all programming TV-PG and above containing adult language.
To block program content:
1. Determine the lowest level of content you do not want the
child to watch.
2. Use the left and right arrows to highlight the Rating Field.
3. Use the up and down arrows on the remote to scroll through
the age-based ratings until the rating that corresponds with the
lowest content you do not want the child to watch appears. (In
the example above, you would scroll through the ratings until
the TV-PG rating appeared.)
4. Press the right arrow to move the highlight to the field
corresponding with the content theme you wish to block out.
5. Press the up or down arrow to change content status from V to
B. All higher ratings content theme will automatically change
to B.
You must remember to Lock Parental
Controls for rating limits to take effect.
