(Content is represented by the D, L, S, V and FV on your screen.) When you block a content theme for a particular rating, you automatically block that content theme for higher rated programs as well. To block program content: 1. Determine the content themes you want to block. 2. Press the down arrow button to select the age-based rating you want to change. 3. Press the right arrow button to highlight a particular content theme. 4. Press the OK button to change its status to the lock icon, or block. (In the example to the left, you block the language (L) corresponding with TV-14. The language for TV-MA is blocked as well). Notes: Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes or age-based ratings. 5. To lock the settings, exit the Parental Control menu or menu system and the password screen appears. Enter your password and press OK. If you exit the menu system without entering your password, the settings you changed won't take effect. Viewing Specific Content Themes 1. Determine the content themes you want to unlock, or view. 2. Press the down arrow button to select the rating whose content theme you want to change, such as language (L) corresponding with TV-14. 3.

Your child would then be able to watch programs with the TV-14 adult language content, but not programs with TV-MA language content.
