Note 2: 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-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA). The sub-rat
ings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly. (See next section.)

next section, and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA
codes.)
Note
• 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. (See next step.)
