Parental Control
Parental Control
26
If used, this optional feature can “block” undesirable programming from appearing on the TV.
Parental Control offers the user a wide variety of options and settings that restrict or “block” the
programming that can appear on the TV. Parental control allows the user the capability of
defining which program rating they consider accept-able, to the younger or more sensitive
viewer. It can be preset and turned either on or off by the user who specifies the secret 4-number
code, the password. The number of hours blocked are specified. General audience and children
viewer blocks should both be programd into the TV’s memory. Viewer ratings are specified for
both TV and the motion picture industry; both rating systems should be used, for complete
coverage.
The ratings are based on the ages of children.
Overview
To insure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows) choose a rating
for MPAA, from the selections below. And choose ratings from the TV Parental Guidelines Rating
System on the next page, using the Age Block option for General Audiences, and for Children. In
addition to those, you may wish to add additional restrictions from the Content Block menu. See
the Parental Control menu, and submenus example on the next page.
Things to Consider before Setting Up Parental Control
Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. (For example, if you choose TV-
PG, all more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the viewer will not be able to see:
TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA rated programming.)
Do you want to block the auxiliary video source entirely? (Blocks the signal sent by the
equipment, such as a VCR, connected to the TV Audio/Video input jacks) Or leave unblocked,
then choose allowable ratings.
Block program “Content” based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog, Bad Language,
Sex Scenes, Violence Scenes, or Fantasy Violence Scenes; in the Content Blk option.
How many hours do you want Parental Control to be active? You can set the Hours option for up
to 99 hours.
If you want to set the hours option all the time, select the always.
Select a secret password; in the Set Password option. Use the number keys on the remote. Don’t
forget the password, it is the only way you can access the Parental Control menu and change
rating selections, or turn Parental Control off.
Do you want Parental Control to be active all the time? If not, you can turn it on or off with the
Lock On/Off option.
* You can set different Parental Control viewing restrictions for general audiences and for children
- - both can be active at the same time.
* Simply specifying one content block such as Sex Scenes, will not automatically block another
content in the programs from appearing.
* Even if you choose to leave the Aux inputs unblocked, the ratings you specify will automatically
restrict the programming that appears from the video sources.
* You can not disable Parental Control by disconnecting the TV from power. Block hours will
automatically reset to the original block time setting specified if power is disconnected.
