Using the TV’s Features

Canadian French V-Chip Rating System

18+ (Adults) Programming is for adults only. This program contains sustained
violence or extremely violent scenes.

16+ (Viewers 16 and over) Programming is not suitable for those under age 16.
This program contains frequent scenes of violence or intensely violent scenes.

13+ (Viewers 13 and over) Programming may not be suitable for children under
the age of 13. This program either contains several violent scenes or one or more
scenes that are violent enough to affect them. Viewing in the company of an adult
is therefore strongly recommended for children under the age of 13.

8+ (Viewers 8 and over) Not recommended for young children. This program is
suitable for most audiences, but it contains mild or occasional violence that could
upset young children. Viewing in the company of an adult is therefore
recommended for young children (under the age of 8) who do not distinguish
between reality and imagination.

G (General Audience) This program is suitable for audiences of all ages. It contains
no violence, or any violence that it does contain is either minimal or is presented
in a humorous manner, as a caricature, or in an unrealistic way.
