ABOUT MPAA AND TV PARENTAL

GUIDELINES

MPAA and TV Parental Guidelines are rating

systems that provide advance cautionary

information to parents about the content of

movie and television programming.

MPAA is a voluntary rating system used by

the movie industry. TV Parental Guidelines

are modeled after the MPAA ratings and were

designed to be simple to use, easy to under-

stand, and easy to find.

TV Parental Guidelines contain both age-based

and content-based information. This gives

parents discretionary ways of choosing

appropriate material for their children to view.

Content ratings are represented by the initials

D (Suggestive Dialog), L (Adult Language),

S (Sexual Situations), V (Violence), and

FV (Fantasy Violence). When programming

contains any or all of these conditions, these

letters become part of the icon that is

displayed on the TV screen.

A rating icon will appear in the upper left-

hand corner of the TV screen for fifteen

seconds at the beginning of a program and

should be repeated at the beginning of the

second hour of a long program. It may also

appear when returning from commercials.

There may be other instances when these icons

will be displayed as well. Parents are encour-

aged to become familiar with these icons and

their meanings.

WHERE CAN I FIND ADVANCE

NOTICE OF PROGRAM RATING

Publishers of programming guides have been

asked to include these ratings along with other

information they publish. You can expect

to find this information in newspapers,

magazines, and on-screen listings and guides.

TYPES OF PROGRAMS TO

RECEIVE RATING

The TV Parental Guidelines will apply to

various types of TV programming, including:

specials, mini-series, and movies. Sports, news,

weather, emergency bulletins, locally originated

programming, public service announcements,

political, and religious

shows do not currently

carry guidelines.

V-GUIDE INFORMATION

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES OF

AMERICA’S FCC V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT FUNCTION

WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

With the introduction of “V-Chip” technology, it is now possible for Sanyo tele-

visions to interpret MPAA and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes. When these

codes are detected, the TV will automatically display or block the program,

depending upon choices you make when setting up the V-Guide system.

V-GUIDE OPERATION

Use this feature to supervise television viewing for children. This television can be set to automatically block programs with

content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view, including: suggestive dialog, adult language, sexual situations,

violence, and fantasy violence.

The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends upon several conditions:

1) The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the

rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be properly setup to decode the signal.

The TV guidelines rating icon appears at the upper left hand corner of your TV screen.
