PARENTAL CONTROLS
Using Parental Controls
The TV’s parental controls allow you to prevent the TV from
displaying certain channels or programs without a password.
The PARENTAL CONTROLS menu only appears when:
• You are using the tuner to receive your TV signals, such as when you
are using an antenna for Over-the-Air signals or when connected to
cable TV directly from the wall (no cable box).
• You have a device connected using a composite video cable or a
coaxial cable, such as a VCR, satellite or cable box, or DVR.
Accessing the Parental Controls Menu
To access the PARENTAL CONTROLS menu:
1. Press the
Menu button on the remote. The on-screen menu is
displayed.
2. Use the
Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight Channels and
press
OK. The CHANNELS menu is displayed.
3. Use the

Controls and press OK.

Blocking and Unblocking Content by Rating
A channel may sometimes broadcast programs that are meant for
children, and at other times broadcast programs that are meant
for mature audiences. You may not want to block the channel
completely using a channel lock, but you may wish to block certain
programs from being viewed.
When this is the case, you can use the TV’s Rating Block feature to
block content based on its rating.
For a list of content ratings and their definitions, visit
www.tvguidelines.org.
To block or unblock content by its rating:
1. From the PARENTAL CONTROLS menu, highlight the content
type you want to adjust and press
OK:
USA TV - USA television program broadcasts.

Canadian English - Canadian English television program
broadcasts.

broadcasts.

Up/Down and Left/Right Arrow buttons on the remote to
highlight the rating type and press
OK.

blocked, the Lock icon appears
locked. Content with this rating and all higher ratings cannot
be viewed.

unblocked, the Lock icon appears
unlocked. Content with this rating and all lower ratings can be
