Blocking based on Canadian French ratings
Canadian-French language programs that are broadcast in Canada are rated by the Régie du cinéma du Québec. TV
broadcast signals carry rating data that enables parental controls to block shows that parents don’t want others to view based
on content containing violence, language, sex, or nudity. The ratings are:
•
G – Generally suitable for all age groups
•
8+ – Viewers 8 years and older
•
13+ – Viewers 13 years and older
•
16+ – Viewers 16 years and older
•
18+ – Adults only
Blocking content with a particular rating also blocks content with a higher rating, and unblocking content with a particular rating
also unblocks movies with a lower rating.
To block programs based on Canadian-French ratings:
1. From the
Home
screen menu, navigate to
Settings > Parental controls
, and then enter your parental control PIN.
2. In the
Parental controls
screen, navigate to

.
3. Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select one rating level, and all higher levels are automatically

Blocking unrated programs
Some broadcast TV shows and movies are assigned a rating of “Unrated”. Whether or not such programs contain content that
is objectionable to you cannot be determined. However, you can choose to block such programs.
To block all unrated broadcasts:
1. From the
Home
screen menu, navigate to
Settings
>
Parental controls
, and then enter your PIN.
2. In the
Parental controls
screen, navigate to
TV tuner
>
Block all unrated programs
.
3. Highlight
Unrated programs
and press
[OK]
. When blocking is enabled, the adjacent padlock icon changed from unlocked
to locked.
Tip:
Blocking programs that have been assigned a rating of “Unrated” does not block programs that have no rating assigned
to them (for example a broadcast of a local town council meeting). Programs that do not have an assigned rating display
Rating NA
(for “not applicable”, meaning a rating is not needed). Programs that have no assigned rating are considered “safe”;
therefore, there is no need to block them.
What happens when a TV show is blocked?
After you’ve set up parental controls, TV shows and movies can be blocked:
When you change channels and the new channel is playing a program whose rating exceeds your settings.
When a new show comes on the channel you are watching and its rating exceeds your settings.
