V-CHIP
is
an
electronic filtering device built into your
TV.
This tool gives parents a great degree of control over
broadcasts accessed by their children.
It
allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing while
blocking ones judged not suitable.
It
does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature
in
your
TV.
"V-Chip" and "Status" will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret
'number.
(See
page 42 for Secret number setting for parental control.)
The U.S. has
two
rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.
The TV Parental Guidelines work
in
conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate
television shows from their children.
Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched
on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.
