Directed to older children. The themes and elements in this program may
include mild physical or comedic violence, or may frighten children under the age of
seven.

TV-G:
General audience. It contains little or no violence, no strong language, and little
or no sexual dialog or situations.
•
TV-PG:
Parental guidance suggested. This program may contain infrequent coarse
language, limited violence, some suggestive sexual dialog and situations.
•
TV-14:

At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.
Press the
ENTER
button. Depending on your existing setup, the “

be selected. (Blank = Unblocked,
= Blocked) While “

ENTER
button to block or unblock the category.
To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the
process.
➢
Allow all:
Press to unlock all TV ratings.
Block all:
Press to lock all TV ratings.
➢
The TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options.
See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings:
•
FV:
Fantasy violence.
•
D:
Sexually suggestive dialog.
•
L:
Adult language.
➢
The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more
restrictive”. For example, if you block
TV-Y
category, then TV-Y7 will
automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all
the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG,
TV-14, and TV-MA). The subratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly.
(See next section.)

How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings. First, select one of these TV-
Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA (See Step
4
), and press
the
ENTER
button. The “
” symbol will be displayed for each
sub-rating. While “
” is selected, press the ► button to go to a sub rating.
Press the
ENTER
to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating,
press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the process.

Press the
EXIT
button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section,
and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)
➢
These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young
children through age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household
includes very young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must
be set up separately for each age group.
