You can customize the V-Chip settings of your television to match your personal tastes. The    
V-Chip menu below is the starting point for your V-Chip settings

You can use US V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from the United States), 
Canadian V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from Canada), and movie ratings. You 
may use any or all of the settings (US V-Chip, Canada V-Chip, Movie ratings). Descriptions for 
setting each of the three V-Chip formats appear in the next six pages along with descriptions 
of the rating categories.

To access the rating categories:

 V-Chip

Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block channels or content 
that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines.       
V-Chip has no effect on video signals from a DVD discs, VCR tapes or Camcorder connection.

Note:

  Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set 

up V-CHIP ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 30 for information on 
how to block unrated programs.

Note (for Canadian viewers):  

The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for 

the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.
