Using the V-Chip
The V-Chip feature automatically
locks out programming that is
deemed inappropriate for
children. The user must first
enter a PIN (personal ID
number) before any of the
V-Chip restrictions can be set up
or changed.
Setting Up Your Personal
ID Number (PIN)
1 Press the MENU button on
the remote control.
2 Press the CH button 6
times, so that “V-Chip” is
highlighted. (When V-Chip is
highlighted, the letters
change to red.)
3 Press the VOL+ button. The
“Enter PIN” screen will
appear. Enter your 4-digit PIN
number.
Note: The default PIN
number for a new TV set is
“0-0-0-0.”
4 After entering a valid PIN
number, the “V-chip mode”
screen will appear. Press
CH and highlight “Change
pin.”
(Note: When a particular field
is highlighted, its color turns
RED.)
5 While the “Change pin” field
is selected, press VOL+.
The Change pin screen will
appear. Choose any 4-digits
for your PIN and enter them.
As soon as the 4 digits are
entered, the “Confirm pin”
screen appears. Re-enter the
same 4 digits. When the
Confirm screen disappears,
your PIN has been
memorized.
Note: If you forget the PIN,
press the remote-control
keys in the following
