UNDERSTANDING THE AUTOLOCK CONTROLS  
he AutoLock feature is an inte-  
Tgrated circuit that receives and  
processes data sent by broadcast-  
ers, or other program providers,  
that contain program content advi-  
sories. When programmed by the  
viewer, a TV with AutoLock can  
respond to the content advisories  
and block program content that  
may be found objectionable (such  
as offensive language, violence,  
sexual situations, etc.). This is a  
great feature to censor the type of  
viewing children may watch.
