Parental Controls, popularly known as the “V-Chip,”depend on information sent by broadcasters
about specific programs. Two ratings systems are available for you to use to screen
inappropriate content for your family.
TV shows can be rated by broadcasters based on the following Age and Content-based
Guidelines:
• TV-Y (All Children – This program is designed to be appropriate for all children.)
• TV-Y7 (Directed to Older Children – This program is designed for children age 7 and above.)
The program may contain fantasy violence (FV).
• TV-G (General Audience – Most parents would find this program suitable for all ages.)
• TV-PG (Parental Guidance Suggested – This program contains material that parents may
find unsuitable for younger children.) The program may contain one or more of the following:
moderate violence (V), some sexual situations (S), infrequent coarse language (L), or some
suggestive dialogue (D).
• TV-14 (Parents Strongly Cautioned – This program contains some material that many
parents would find unsuitable for children under 14 years of age.) 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 following:
intense violence (V), intense sexual situations (S), strong coarse language (L), or intensely
suggestive dialogue (D).
• TV-MA (Mature Audience Only – This program is designed to be viewed by adults and
therefore may be unsuitable for children under 17.) This program contains one or more of the
following: graphic violence (V), explicit sexual activity (S), or crude indecent language (L).
Some programmers use the Movie Ratings (MPAA)
System to rate TV shows on the same scale as motion pictures:
• A G-rated motion picture contains nothing intheme, language, nudity, sex, violence or other
matters that would offend parents whose younger children view the motion picture.
• A PG-rated motion picture should be investigated by parents before they let younger children
attend.
• A PG-13 rating is a sterner warning to parents to determine whether their children under age
should view the motion picture, as some material might not be suited for them.
• An R-rated motion picture contains some adult material.
• An NC-17 rated motion picture is one that most parents would consider too adult for their
children.
• An X rated motion picture is only for adults.
• An NR rated motion picture is not rated by the MPAA.

CLOSED CAPTIONING ON THE CONVERTER BOX
Closed captions allow people who are deaf or hard of hearing to enjoy TV programming. Captions
are also a helpful tool for those learning English or watching TV in a noisy environment.
The Converter Box provides two ways for you to view captions. You should choose one method or
the other.
Method 1
First, you can continue receiving standard TV captions (basic white text on a black background)
through your analog TV set. The Converter Box will automatically send the closed-captioning in
formation to your television for the TV to decode and display. All you need to do is turn on the
closed captioning function on your TV as you always have (if your TV has this capability, as newer
TV sets do.)
Method 2
Alternatively, the Converter Box can be used to decode captions and display them on your TV
screen. If you use this method, you will be able to enjoy the enhancements made possible by digital
technology.
To use the converter box to display closed captions:
1. Turn OFF your television’s closed-caption decoder.
2. Turn on the Converter Box’s captioning decoder by pressing the CC button at the lower left-hand
side of the remote control.
•
When you use the converter box to display closed captions in this way, you can choose different
types (languages) of captions, depending on what information broadcasters are sending.
Advantages of closed captioning on the Converter Box
AUsing the Converter Box to decode captions gives you more choices and more flexibility when
viewing captions on digital TV shows. If you choose this method, you can personalize your captions
by making the following choices:
•
•
Select different types of fonts.
Choose between eight background colors and foreground colors for the captioning text (white,
black, red, green, blue, yellow, magenta, and cyan).
•
•
Make the caption background transparent, translucent, solid, or fashing.
Set edges of font characters with raised edges, depressed edges, uniform edges, left shadow or
right shadow.
Each of these enhancements to standard digital captions can be accessed from the main menu of
the Converter Box by pressing the MENU button.
To use Closed Captioning, please frst try turning ON Closed Captioning feature on your TV (this
setting can normally be found in TV’s setup menu). If not satisfed with the results, try turning
OFF Closed Captioning feature on your TV, and turning ON Closed Captioning feature on your
Converter Box.
Note: DO NOT enable closed captions on both TV and the converter box. Otherwise, both captions
will be overlapped.
