"block''theprogrammingthatcanappearontheTV.ParentalControlallowstheusertodene

which program rating they consider acceptable for the younger more sensitive viewer. It can

bepresetandturnedeitheronoroffbytheuserwhospeciesthesecret4-numberpassword.

The user can specify what time to block programming. General audiences and children blocks
should be both programmed into the TV's memory. Separate different viewer ratings are

speciedforbothTVandthemotionpictureIndustry;bothratingsystemsshouldbeusedand

based on the ages of children.

Overview

To ensure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows) choose a
rating for MPAA, from the selections below, as well as ratings from the TV Parental Guidelines
Rating Systems below, using the Age Block option for General Audiences, and for children.
In addition, you may wish to add additional restrictions from the content block menu, and
submenus examples below.

Things to Consider before Setting up Parental Control

Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. (For example,if you choose TV­PG, more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the viewer will not be able to see:
TV-PG,TV-14,or TV-MA rated programming.) You may block the auxiliary video source entirely.
(Blocks the signal sent by the equipment, such as VCR, connected to the TV Audio/Video
Input Jacks) or remain unblocked, then choose acceptable ratings. Block program "Content"
based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog, Bad Language, Sex Scenes, Violence
Scenes, or Fantasy. Violent Scenes; in Content Blk option. Select a secret password, in the
Set Password option, using the numbers keys on the remote control. Save the password,
it is the only way to access the Parental Control menu and change rating setting, or turn off
Parental Control.

• You can set different Parental Control viewing restrictions for general audiences and for
children; both can be active at the same time.

• Simply specifying one content block, such as Sex Scenes, will not automatically restrict the
programming that appears from the video sources.

• Even If you choose to leave the AUX Inputs unblocked, the ratings you specify will
automatically restrict the programming that appears from the video sources.

• You cannot disable Parental Control by disconnecting the TV from power. Block hours will
