General audience and children viewer blocks can both be programmed 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.

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; in the Aux. Sources option.) 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. • Select a password; in the Set Password option. Use the numbered keys on the remote to set a password. Don't forget the password. Note: Reset Parental Control Block Hours to Zero and Cancel Password This provides the institution staff and the installer a means to reset the TV to normal operation; if a user has either forgotten the password or has left Parental Control Block active. Note: Installer Menu item 0-I Installer Seq must be set to 0 for this to work. On the optional installer's remote control, press and hold down MENU until the menu disappears (takes about 8 seconds). Immediately press 9, 8, 7, 6 and then CC. This will reset the Block Hours to Zero and cancel the current 4-number password. Page 37

by the user who specifies a secret 4-number code, the password. The number of
hours blocked are specified. General audience and children viewer blocks can both
be programmed into the TV’s memory. Viewer ratings are specified for both TV and

erage. The ratings are based on the ages of children. (See following pages.)
