menus. The theory is the same throughout the menu screens: highlight your
choice and select it.

CHAN
MENU
To highlight a menu item, use the CHAN ^/v buttons to move up or down. Use
the VOL +/- buttons to move left or right or to change an item’s setting.
Use the CHAN ^/v and VOL +/–
buttons to move through the
menu system. Use the MENU
button to select items.
Use the MENU button to select menu items.
You can also use the remote’s number buttons to select menu items directly.
Note: Highlighted means that the menu item stands out from
other menu items on the list (appears darker, brighter, or a different
color).
Turn on the TV
Press the POWER button on the remote control or the TV (the first screen of
the Interactive Setup appears). The menu screens “time out” after a period of
time if you don’t make a selection. The tips in this section tell you how to access
the Setup menu screens manually.
Complete the Interactive Setup
The menu system in your TV allows the TV’s features to work properly. In this
book, we call it the “interactive setup” because the TV asks you questions, you
answer, and the TV makes the appropriate adjustments. The first time you turn
on your TV, the setup screens appear automatically.
Tip
To access the setup menus manually, press
MENU and choose Setup.

Parental Controls and V-Chip
The Parental Controls menu allows you to pr ogram your TV so that children
cannot see certain programs, channels, or use the front panel controls.
The first three choices in the Parental Controls menu involve softwar e inside your
TV (referred to as V-Chip) which allows you to block TV pr ograms and movies
based on violence, sex, or other content you may believe children should not
view. In other wor ds, it lets you pr ogram your TV so it won’t display certain
programs.

How V-Chip Works
When turned “on,” the V-Chip software reads a code that most broadcasters send with programs.
That code tells the 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 the program contains, you will receive the message, “This channel is not
approved for viewing,” when you tune to that particular channel.
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content
themes will only be blocked if you block their age-based rating. Y ou can also block out programs
that have been given a rating of “Not Rated,” and programs that are considered “unrated”
because no code has been sent by the br oadcaster. The TV age-based ratings and content
themes you can block are listed in the following table.
Age-Based
Description and Content Themes for Age-Based Ratings
Rating
Mature Audience Only. Specifically designed to be viewed by adults and may be unsuitable for children under
TV-MA
17. It contains one or more of the following content themes: crude indecent language (L), explicit sexual
activity (S), or graphic violence (V).
Parents Strongly Cautioned. Contains some material that many parents would find unsuitable for children
under 14. Parents are strongly urged to exercise greater care in monitoring this program and are cautioned
against letting children under the age of 14 watch unattended. This program contains one or more of the
TV-14
following content themes: intensely suggestive dialogue (D), strong coarse language (L), intense sexual
situations (S), or intense violence (V).
Parental Guidance Suggested. Contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many
parents may want to watch it with their younger children. The program contains one or more of the following
content themes: some suggestive dialogue (D), infrequent coarse language (L), some sexual situations (S), or
moderate violence (V).
TV-PG
General Audience. Most parents would find this program suitable for all ages. It contains little or no sexual
dialogue (D) or situations (S), no strong language (L), and little or no violence (V).
TV-G
Directed to Children 7 years and older. Designed for children ages 7 and above. It may be more appropriate
for children who have acquired the developmental skills needed to distinguish between make-believe and
reality. Themes and elements in this program may include mild fantasy violence (FV) or comedic violence, or
may frighten children under the age of 7.
TV-Y7
All Children. Themes and elements in this program are designed for a young audience, including children
from ages 2-6. It is not expected to frighten younger children.

rating level. For example, if you only want your child to watch programs that
have a TV-G rating and lower (in other words, you want the child to watch

higher ratings.

icon is displayed in the channel banner. See Chapter 2 for more information about the channel
banner.
CLOSED-CAPTION MODE
Closed-Caption Modes
The TV offers eight closed-captioned modes, including four text modes.

Care and Cleaning
CAUTION: Turn OFF your TV before cleaning.
You can clean the TV as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation slots in the cabinet
to help assure adequate ventilation.
The TV’s screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as well. Take care not to scratch or mar the screen. If necessary,
you may use a cloth dampened with warm water. Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners, or
abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage the TV.
While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and inside the TV. Also,
avoid placing drinks or vases with water on top of the TV. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or damage to
the TV.
Caution: Using video games or any external accessory with fixed images for extended periods of time can cause them to be
permanently imprinted on the picture tube (or projection TV picture tubes). ALSO, some network/program logos, phone
numbers, etc. may cause similar damage. This damage is not covered by your warranty.
