Special Features : 5 How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings: First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 or TV-MA (See Step 4, on previous page.) Next, while the TV-Rating is selected, repeatedly move the joystick right. This will cycle through the available sub-ratings (FV, L, S, D or V). A letter ("U" or "B") will be displayed for each sub-rating. While the "U" or "B" is selected, move the joystick down or up to change the sub-rating.

For example, if you block "L" sub-rating in TV-PG, then the "L" sub-ratings in TV-14 and TV-MA will automatically be blocked. 6 Press the Menu button to clear all the screens.
