Parental Controls and V-Chip
The first three choices in the Parental Controls menu involve software inside your IV (referred to as V-
Chip[ which allows you to block IV programs and movies based on violence, sex, or other content you
may believe children should not view.
Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.
By default, the software inside your IV is turned "off."
HOW V-Chip Works
V-Chip reads the program's age-based rating (IV-MA, IV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence (V),
Adult Language (L),etc.)]. If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that the program
contains, you will receive the message, "This channel is not approved for viewing."
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content themes
will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out programs that have been
given a rating of "Not Rated," and programs that are considered "unrated." The IV age-based ratings and
content themes you can block are listed on the following page.
