PARENTALCONTROL / RATINGS
Parental Control can be used to block specific channels, ratings and other viewing sources.
The Parental Control Function (V-Chip) is used to block program viewing based on the ratings
sent by the broadcasting station. The default setting is to allow all programs to be viewed.
Viewing can be blocked by choosing the type of the program and the categories. It is also possi-
ble to block all program viewing for a time period. To use this function, the following must be
done:
1. Set ratings and categories to be blocked.
2. Specify a password
3. Enable the lock
