V-Chip
V-CHIP is an electronic fi ltering device built into your

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 fi rst confi gure
your secret number.

on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can
also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.
