Some DVD-Video discs feature a Parental Lock
level. If your player is set to a lower level than the
disc, the disc won’t play. This gives you some
control about what your children watch on your
DVD player.
Some discs also support the Country code
feature. The player does not play certain scenes
on these discs, depending on the Country code
you set.
Before you can set the Parental Lock level or the
Country code you must register a password. As
the password owner, you can change the
Parental Lock level or Country code whenever
you like. You can also change the password.
• Not all discs that you may consider
inappropriate for your children use the
Parental Lock feature. These discs will
always play without requiring the password
first.
• If you forget your password, you’ll need to
reset the player to its factory settings (see
Resetting the Player on page 66), then
register a new password.
Registering a new password
