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 37 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.
