V-Guide (Parental Control) Operation

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S FCC
V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT FUNCTION WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE
IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic V-Chip to interpret MPAA and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes.
When these codes are detected, the TV will automatically display or block the program, depending upon choices you make
when setting up the V-Guide system. Content ratings are represented by the initials: FV (fantasy violence), D (suggestive
dialog), L (adult language), S (sexual situations), and V (violence).
A rating icon will generally appear in the upper left hand corner of the TV screen for about fifteen seconds at
the beginning of a program.
This television can be set to block programs automatically with content
you deem as inappropriate for your children to view.
