Parental Controls and V-Chip
The choices in the USA V-CHIP menu involve software inside your TV (referred to as V-Chip) which
allows you to block TV programs and movies based on violence, sex or other content you may
believe children should not view.
Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.
By default, the software inside your TV is turned “off.” For instructions to turn on V-Chip, refer to
Activate Parental Control below.
How V-Chip Works
V-Chip reads the program’s age-based rating ( TV-MA, TV-14 , etc.) and content themes (Violence (V),
Adult Language (L) , etc.). If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that the program
contains, you will receive the message: This channel has not been approved for viewing. Change
channel or press OK to enter password and temporarily deactivate the Parental Control.
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content
themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out programs
that have been given a rating of Not Rated and programs that are considered unrated.
The TV age-based ratings and content themes you can block are identified and explained in detail
in Chapter 4.
The following sections give you more details about how to change the status of TV program limits.
