About viewing restrictions
• Write your password down and keep it in a safe
place in case you forget it.
• Depending on the DVD, the level of viewing
restriction being set may be different. Check
the packaging of DVD software. Also, you can-
not set viewing restrictions on a DVD that does
not have a viewing restriction setting.
• Depending on the DVD, the scenes with view-
ing restrictions may be skipped while playing.
For details, see the instructions of the DVD
disc.
• If you try to play a restricted DVD, the pass-
word prompt screen may appear. In this case,
play will not start unless the correct password
is entered.

When you want to change the viewing
restriction level, perform the same opera-
tion.

While changing the setting, if the wrong

tion symbol appears. If this happens, enter
the correct password.

If you forget the password, press the
CLEAR button ten times. Then you can set
a new password.
Setting aspect ratio of the
screen
There are two types of displays: wide screens with
an aspect ratio of 16:9 and normal screens with
an aspect ratio of 4:3. Set the aspect ratio accord-
ing to the display you use.
TV ASPECT
16:9* :
Select when using wide type. (default setting)
LETTER BOX :
Select when using normal type. If the image
stored on the DVD is 16:9, the screen becomes
smaller with black bands appearing on the top
and bottom part of the display, but without left
and right sides being cut off.
PANSCAN :
Select when using normal type. When the image
stored on the DVD is 16:9, the left and right sides
will be cut off, but the image will be displayed on
the whole screen.
❒
Setting to “16:9” when using normal type dis-
play may cause the picture to look unnatural.
❒
When you play a DVD that is not compatible
with “PANSCAN”, it is played in “LETTER
BOX” aspect even when “PANSCAN” is set.
❒
Some DVDs may not be able to change the TV
ASPECT. For details, see the instruction of the
DVD disc.
