3 The “TV guidelines” screen will appear. Move the joystick up or down to highlight one of the six age-based categories:
TV-Y Young children
TV-Y7 Children 7 and over
TV-G General audience
TV-PG Parental guidance
TV-14 Viewers 14 and over
TV-MA Mature audience
Note: These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7
(young children through age 7), and
TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very young children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)
4 At this point, one of the TV-
Ratings is highlighted (Blue color).
Move the joystick right:
Depending on your existing setup, a letter “U” or
“B” will be highlighted.
(U=Unblocked, B=Blocked).
Move the joystick down or up to block or unblock the category. Move the joystick to the right. To select a different TV-Rating, move the joystick down or up and then repeat the process.
Note 1: TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings: FV:Fantasy violence, D:Dialog,
L:Language, S:Sexual situation, V:Violence
Note 2: The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive.” For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-
MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together similarly. (See next section.)
Special Features
:
5 How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings: First, highlight 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 highlighted (BLUE), 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 highlighted, move the joystick down or up to change the sub-rating.
Note: The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”.
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. (Or proceed to the next section, and set up additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes).
How to Set up Restrictions Using the MPAA Ratings: G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17, X
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) system, and its main application is for movies. (Eventually, movie videocassettes will be encoded with MPAA ratings.) When the V-Chip lock is on, the TV will automatically block any programs that are coded with objectionable ratings (either MPAA or TV-Ratings).
1 Press the Menu button. Move the joystick down to select SETUP, then press the joystick to enter.

PG-13 PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned).
R R (Restricted. Children under 17 should be accompanied by an adult).
NC-17 No children under age 17.
X X (Adults only).
NR Not rated.
While a particular category is highlighted, move the joystick to the right to activate it. A letter (“U” or “B”) will be displayed. Move the joystick down or up to select “U” or
“B”. Press Menu button to save the settings and to clear all screens.
Note: The V-Chip will automatically block any category that is “more restrictive.”
For example, if you block the “PG-13” category, then “R”,
“NC-17”, and “X” will automatically be blocked also.
How to Reset the TV after the V-Chip Blocks a Channel (“Emergency Escape”)
If the TV is tuned to a restricted channel, the V-Chip will block it. The screen will go blank and the following message will appear: “Excessive rating.”
To resume normal viewing, tune to a different channel using the number buttons. Under certain conditions (depending on the rating of the local TV programs) the V-Chip might lock out all the channels. In this case, use the V-Chip button for an “emergency escape”:
