Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features

Blocking TV programs and movies

by rating (V-Chip)

Some TV programs and movies include signals

that classify the content of the program (violence,

sex, dialogue, language). The V-Chip feature in

this TV detects the signals and blocks the

programs according to the ratings you select. (For

rating descriptions, see the tables on the next

page.)

Note:

Rating blocking is a function of the

V-Chip feature in this TV, which supports the

U.S. V-Chip system only.

To block and unblock TV programs and

movies:

Downloading an additional rating

system for blocking TV programs

and movies

An additional rating system may be available for

use in selectively blocking programs.

Note:

The currently tuned station must be

receiving a digital signal before an additional

rating system can be downloaded.

To download the additional rating system (if

available):

Note:

•

The additional rating system can only be

downloaded one time. You will not be able to

download any updates to the rating system

should such updates become available.

•

The additional rating system is not

designed, transmitted, or controlled by the

TV or Toshiba, nor is the availability of an

additional rating system determined or

controlled by Toshiba. Similarly, the rating of

programs in an additional rating system is

not determined, transmitted, or controlled by

the TV or Toshiba.

•

The additional rating system is an evolving

technology; therefore, availability, content,

and format may vary.
