Page 58• G – General audiences• PG – Parental guidance suggested• PG-‐13 – Parents strongly cautioned for children age 13 or younger• R – Restricted• NC-‐17 – Not for age 17 or youngerUnlike US TV ratings, there are no individual content types within the ratings. But like TV ratings,blocking movies with a particular rating also blocks movies with a higher rating, and unblocking movieswith a particular rating also unblocks movies with a lower rating.Tip: Blocking movies with an NC-‐17 rating also blocks programs with the now-‐obsolete X rating,which can still occur in the program data of older movies.To block movies based on MPAA ratings:1. From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental controls, and then enter yourparental control PIN.2. In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV Tuner > Movie ratings.3. Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select one rating level, and all higherlevels are automatically blocked.Blocking based on Other ratingsYour TV can block programs having ratings that had not been defined when the TV was manufactured. Itdoes this by detecting a new Rating Region Table in a program and then downloading the new table anddisplaying its rating in the Parental controls.When the TV downloads a new Rating Region Table, it adds a new option to the list of rating types:Other ratings. If you see this option in the Parental controls screen, you have tuned to a station that hasimplemented a new rating table. Once the new rating table has been downloaded to the TV, it remainsin the TV until it is factory reset, and you can configure blocking based on the new ratings.New Region Rating Tables can have independent rating levels, or rating levels that interact in the sameways as the built-‐in US TV and MPAA Movie ratings.Tip: If your TV downloads a new Region Rating Table, you’ll have to experiment with its settingsto understand how to use it.Blocking based on Canadian English ratingsCanadian-‐English language and third-‐language programs that are broadcast in Canada are rated by theAction Group on Violence on Television, or AGVOT. TV broadcast signals carry rating data that enablesparental controls to block shows that parents don’t want others to view based on content containingviolence, language, sex, or nudity. The ratings are:• C – Children under 8 years
