V-CHIP Settings
V-CHIP
This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC data. It prevents children from watching
violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.
Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of
America) rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and
content.
Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines, both should be adjusted for complete control.
MPAA rating
Rating Description
age-
based
G GENERAL AUDIENCES. All ages admitted.
PG PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED. Some material may not be suitable for children.
PG-13 PARENTS STRONGLY CAUTIONED. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
R RESTRICTED. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian.
NC-17 NO ONE 17 AND UNDER ADMITTED.
X X is an older rating that is unified with NC-17 but may be encoded in the data of older movies.
MPAA rating
Example 1:
PG-13 in the age-based
rating is blocked, this will also
automatically block the higher
ratings R, NC-17 and X.

Example:
When TV-Y7 in the age-based rating is set to BLOCK, the higher ratings (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA) will also be blocked automatically. In
addition, D, L, S, V and FV in BLOCK CONTENT are automatically blocked unless you manually set BLOCK CONTENT.
A
Age-based ratings can be modified by the content-based ratings, but only in the combinations indicated by an
in the table above.
Choosing a lower age-based rating blocks the higher age-based ratings regardless of content rating settings.
If you set TV-Y or TV-Y7 to BLOCK, BLOCK CONTENT will display all items.
Example 2:
R in the age-based rating
is blocked, this will also
automatically block the higher
ratings NC-17 and X.

Canadian Rating Systems
The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programing.
While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration
other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.
When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
Canadian French ratings.
Canadian English ratings
Canadian French ratings
Rating Description
age-based
C
Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years. Pays careful attention to
themes that could threaten their sense of security and well-being.
C8
e
Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence as the preferred, acceptable,
or only way to resolve conflict; nor encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which they
may see on the screen.
G
General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family,
contains very little violence, physical, verbal or emotional.
PG
Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger
children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues.
14
e
Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence is one of the dominant elements of the
storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language usage
could be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.
18
e
Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain depictions of violence,
which while related to the development of plot, character or themes, are intended for adult
viewing. Could contain graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.
Rating Description
age-based
G
General: All ages and children, contains minimal direct violence, but may be integrated into
the plot in a humorous or unrealistic manner.
8 ans
e
General but inadvisable for young children: May be viewed by a wide public audience,
but could contain scenes disturbing to children under 8 who cannot distinguish between
imaginary and real situations. Recommended for viewing with parent.
13 ans
e
Over 13 years: Could contain scenes of frequent violent scenes and therefore recommended
for viewing with parent.
16 ans
e
Over 16 years: Could contain frequent violent scenes and intense violence.
18 ans
e
Over 18 years: Only for adult viewing. Could contain frequent violent scenes and extreme

CLOSED CAPTION
Setting CLOSED CAPTION
This LCD TV set is equipped with an internal Closed
Caption decoder. “Closed Caption” is a system which allows
conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and
home videos to be viewed as captions on the TV screen (see
the illustration).
Not all programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please
look for the symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
The Closed Caption broadcasts can be viewed in two modes:
CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are
available: CH1 and CH2.
The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and
commentaries of TV dramas and
news programs while allowing a
clear view of the picture.
The TEXT mode displays various
information over the picture (such as
TV program schedules and weather
forecasts, etc.) that is independent
of the TV programs.

Before calling for repair services, make the following checks for possible remedies to the encountered symptoms.
Problem Check item
The picture is not sharp.
The picture moves.
The reception may be weak.
The quality of the broadcast may also be bad.
Make sure the antenna is facing the right direction.
Make sure the outside antenna is connected.
The picture is doubled or
tripled.
Make sure the antenna is facing the right direction.
There may be reflected electric waves from mountains or buildings.
The picture is spotted.
There may be interference from automobiles, trains, high voltage lines,
neon lights, etc.
There may be interference between the antenna cable and AC cord. Try
positioning them further apart.
There are stripes on the
screen or colors fade.
Is the unit receiving interference from other devices?
Transmission antennas of radio broadcasting stations, transmission
antennas of amateur radios and cellular phones may also cause
interference.
Use the unit as far apart as possible from devices that may cause possible
interference.
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, ofce), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not
a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as
this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
