Blocking a program
This television incorporates V-Chip technology to block the viewing of movies and television programs according to the
rating category. There are four content advisory categories: MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), U.S. TV
Program, Canadian English ratings, and Canadian French ratings. These categories are used as guidelines for
blocking programs.
The default mode for the Lock category is the Unlocked state.
