That code tells theTV software the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence(V), Adult Language (L), etc.)]. If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that theprogram contains and the TV is locked and you tune to a program whose rating exceeds therating limit you set, you will receive a message telling you that the program is blocked fromviewing.Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no contentthemes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating and the TV is locked. With theV-Chip Unrated menu, you can also block out programs that have been given a rating of “NotRated,” or “Exempt” and programs that are considered “unrated”.
