sub-ratings (FV,L, S, D or V).
A letter (“U” or “B”) will be displayed for each sub-rating. While the “U” or “B” is selected, press the
▲

How to Set up Restrictions using the MPAA Ratings: G, PG, PG-
13, R, NC-17, X
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) system,
and its main application is for movies. (Eventually, movie videocassettes will be encoded
with MPAA ratings.) When the V-Chip lock is on, the TV will automatically block any
programs that are coded with objectionable ratings (either MPAA or TV-Ratings).
