you make when setting up the V-Guide system. Content
ratings are represented by the initials: FV (fantasy vio-
lence), D (suggestive dialog), L (adult language), S (sexual
situations), and V (violence). A rating icon will generally
appear at the beginning of a program, see chart on
page 19.
This television can be set to block programs with
content you deem as inappropriate for your children to
