Blocking and Unblocking Content by Rating
A channel may sometimes broadcast programs that are meant for children, and
at other times broadcast programs that are meant for mature audiences. You may
not want to block the channel completely using a channel lock, but you may wish
to block certain programs from being viewed.
When this is the case, you can use the TV’s Rating Block feature to block content
based on its rating.
