PARENTAL CONTROL/RATINGS Parental Control can be used to block specific channels, ratings and other viewing sources.

Viewing can be blocked by choosing the type of the program and the categories. It is also possible to block all program viewing for a time period. To use this function, the following must be done: 1. Set ratings and categories to be blocked. 2. Specify a password. 3. Enable the lock. V-Chip Ratings and Categories Rating guidelines are provided by broadcasting stations.
