[. . . ] For complete coverage, General Audience and Children viewer blocks should both be programmed into the TV's memory. Viewer ratings are specified for both TV and the motion picture industry; both rating systems can be used. The ratings are based mainly on the ages of children. Overview To insure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows) choose a rating for "MPAA", from the selections below AND choose ratings from the "TV Parental Guideline Rating System" on the next page, using the Age Block option for General Audiences, and for Children. In addition to those, you may wish to include additional restrictions from the Content Block menu. See the Parental Control menu, and submenus example on the next page. Things to Consider before Setting Up Parental Control Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. (For example, if you choose TV-PG, all more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the viewer will not be able to see: TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA rated programming. ) Do you want to block the auxiliary video source entirely?(Blocks the signal sent by the equipment, such as a VCR, connected to the TV Audio/Video input jacks; in the Aux. Block option. ) Or leave unblocked, and have the restrictions you specified filter programming from the video source. Block program "Content" based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog, Bad Language, Sex Scenes, Violence Scenes, or Fantasy Violence Scenes; in the Content Blk option. Don't forget the password, it is the only way you can access the Parental Control menu and change rating selections, or turn Parental Control off. If not, you can turn it on or off; with the Lock On/Off option. You should set Parental Control viewing restrictions for General Audiences and for Children - - both should be active at the same time. Simply specifying one content block such as Sex Scenes, will not automatically block another content in the programs from appearing. Mini glossary If you choose to leave the Aux inputs unblocked, the ratings you specify will still restrict the programming content that appears from the video sources. You cannot disable Parental Control by disconnecting the TV from power. Block hours will automatically reset to the original block time setting specified if power is disconnected.
