UNDERSTANDING THE AUTOLOCK™ FEATURE  
17  
MOVIE RATINGS Continued  
he AutoLock™ feature is an integrated  
Tcircuit that receives and processes data  
sent by broadcasters, or other program  
providers, that contain program content advi-  
sories. When programmed by the viewer, a  
TV with AutoLock™ can respond to the con-  
tent advisories and block program content  
that may be found objectionable (such as  
offensive language, violence, sexual situa-  
tions, etc.). This is a great feature to censor  
the type of viewing children may watch.  
R: Restricted - This is programming is specif-  
ically designed for adults. Anyone under the  
age of 17 should only view this programming  
with an accompanying parent or adult guardian.  
NC-17: No one under the age of 17 will  
be admitted. - This type of programming  
should be viewed by adults only.  
X: Adults Only - This type of programming  
contains one or more of the following: very  
graphic violence, very graphic and explicit or  
indecent sexual acts, very coarse and intensely  
suggestive language.  
AutoLock™ offers various BLOCKING  
controls from which to choose:  
Access Code - An Access Code must be  
set to prevent children from unblocking ques-  
tionable or censored programming set by  
their parents.  
TV RATINGS  
TV-Y -- Designed for a very young audience,  
including children ages 2-6.  
TV-Y7 --It may be appropriate for children  
age 7 and above who have acquired the devel-  
opment skills needed to distinguish between  
make-believe and reality.  
Channel Block - After an access code has  
been programmed, you can block individual  
channels including the A/V inputs.  
TV-G -- Suitable for most audiences, this type  
of programming contains little or no violence,  
no strong language, and little or no sexual dia-  
logue or situations.  
TV-PG -- This program contains material that  
parents may find unsuitable for younger chil-  
dren. Could contain Moderate violence (V),  
some sexual situations (S), infrequent coarse  
language (L), or some suggestive dialogue (D).  
Clear All - Allows you clear all channels  
being blocked from your viewing set with the  
Channel Block Control.  
Block All - Allows you to block ALL chan-  
nels and A/V inputs at one time.  
Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options  
exist which will block programming based  
on ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures  
Association of America.  
TV-14 -- This program contains some material  
that many parents would find unsuitable for  
children under 14 years of age. This type of  
programming contains one or more of the fol-  
lowing: intense violence (V), intense sexual sit-  
uations (S), strong coarse language (L), or  
intensely suggestive dialogue (D).  
TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,  
programs can be blocked from viewing using  
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.  
MOVIE RATINGS  
G: General Audience - All ages admitted.  
Most parents would find this program suit-  
able for all ages.  
PG: Parental Guidance Suggested -  
This programming contains material that par-  
ents may find unsuitable for younger children.  
PG-13: Parents Strongly Cautioned - This  
programming contains material that parents  
may find unsuitable for children under the age  
of 13.  
TV-MA -- This program is specifically  
designed to be viewed by adults and therefore  
may be unsuitable for children under 17. This  
type of programming contains one or more of  
the following: graphic violence (V), explicit  
sexual situations (S), or crude indecent lan-  
guage (L).
