he AutoLocW Mfeature receives aim
roeesses data set_t by broadcasters or
other program provMers that contain pro-
g_wm content advisories. When programmed
by the viewez, aTV with AutoLocW Mcan
re_pond to the content advisories and block
program content that may be found objection-
able (such as offensive language, violence,
sexual situations, etc.). This is agreat feature
to censor the type qf programming children
may watch.
In the AutoLock TM section, you'll learn how
to block channels mad programming that is
not rated, is unrated, or has no rating. You
will also find out how to turn these blocking
features ON or OFF. Following are brief
explanations of some terms and ratings relat-
ed to the AutoLock TM feature.
AutoLock TM offers various Blocking
Options from which to choose:
BLOCKING: The BLOCKING control is
what can be thought of as the "master switch"
for AutoLock TM. This control affects the set-
tings you have chosen for blocking programs
according to movie ratings or TV ratings, or
for blocking programs that have no rating or
are unrated. When the BLOCKING control is
OFE the blocking or censoring of programs is
disabled. When the BLOCKING control is
ON, blocking will occur according to the set-
tings you have chosen.
NO RATING: ALL programming with no
content advisory data can be blocked if NO
RATING is set to ON.
Programming that has No Rating is not
encoded with any _wting i@)rmation firm the
MPAA or the Parental Guidelines. Any pro-
gramming could fall into this category.
You also can block individual channels or
block programming based on ratings of the
MPAA and TV broadcasters. (See a descrip-
tion of the ratings on this page.)
