Parental Controls and V-Chip

The choices in the US V-Chip and Canada V-Chip menus involve software inside your TV
(referred to as V-Chip) which allows you to block TV programs and movies. TV programs can
be blocked by age-based ratings, such as TV-MA, which is explained on page 28. If available,
TV programs can also be blocked by content, such as adult language (L). This is explained on
page 29. Movies can only be blocked by age-based ratings. This is explained on page 30.
Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.
By default, the software inside your TV is turned off or unlocked. For instructions to lock
V-Chip, see the next page.
Note: Parental control settings are not available for HDMI or CMP1 or 2 inputs.
