Press the MENU button on the main unit or on the remote control and then press buttons
to select LOCK menu. Use the 0-9 buttons to input the 4-digit password to enter the LOCK
menu. If used, this option feature can "block'' undesirable programming from appearing on
the TV.
Parental Control offers users a wide variety of options and settings that restrict or "block''
the programming that can appear on the TV. Parental Control allows users to define which
program rating they consider acceptable for a younger more sensitive viewer. It can be
preset and turned either on or off by the user who specifies the secret 4-number password
code. The number of hours blocked can also be specified.
General audience and children block should both be programmed into the TV memory.
Separate different viewer ratings are specified 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 show) using the
Age Block option, choose a rating from both the MPAA and TV Parental Guideline tables on
the next page. In addition, you may wish to add other restrictions selected from the content
block menu and submenus.
Things to Consider before Setting up Parental Control
Determine which ratings you consider are acceptable for different viewers. For example, if
you choose TV-PG, more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; some viewers will
not be able to see: TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA rated programs. You may block the auxiliary
video source entirely.
Use the Content Blk option to block program Content based on individual parameters such
as: Strong Dialog, Bad Language, Sex Scenes, Violence Scenes or Fantasy.
Go into the Set Password option and use the numeric keys on the remote control to set a
secret password, then save the password, it is the only way to access the Parental Control
menu and change ratings 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
be automatically reset to the original block time setting specified if power is disconnected.
