Understanding SmartLock SmartLock processes program content advisories from broadcasters. SmartLock can respond to the content advisories and block objectionable content (offensive language, violence, sexual situations, etc.).This is a great feature to censor the type of programming children watch. SmartLock offers various blocking options from which to choose: MASTER DISABLE: This is the "master switch" for SmartLock.When ON, all blocking/censoring is disabled.When OFF, all blocking (that you have set) will take place. BLOCK UNRATED: All unrated programs (based on Movie Ratings or TV Ratings) will be blocked if this feature is ON and MASTER DISABLE is OFF. BLOCK NO RATINGS: All programming with no content advisory data will be blocked if this feature is ON and MASTER DISABLE is OFF. After you set an access code, you can block up to six ratings in TV Ratings or Movie Ratings.These ratings are set by the Motion Pictures Association of America and TV broadcasters.
