LOCK (Parental Control)
Rating
Some movies contain scenes that may not be suitable
for children to view. Many of these discs contain
parental control information that applies to the complete
disc or to certain scenes on the disc. Movies and
scenes are rated from 1 to 8, depending on the country.
DVD video discs may or may not respond to the
parental control setting if the Country code of the disc is
set wrongly. Some discs offer more suitable scenes as
an alternative.
The parental control feature allows you to block access
to scenes below the rating you input, thereby preventing
your children from being able to view material you
believe is unsuitable.
1. Select “Rating” on the LOCK menu then
press B.
2. To access the Rating, Password and Country Code
features, you must input the 4-digit security code you
created. If you have not yet entered a security code
you are prompted to do so.
Input a 4-digit code and press ENTER. Enter it again
and press ENTER to verify. If you make a mistake
before pressing ENTER, press CLEAR.
3. Select a rating from 1 to 8 using the v / V buttons.
Rating 1-8: Rating one (1) has the most restrictions
and rating eight (8) is the least restrictive.
Unlock
If you select unlock, parental control is not active
and the disc plays in full.
Note:
If you set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with the
same rating or lower are played. Higher rated scenes are
not played unless an alternate scene is available on the
disc. The alternative must have the same rating or a lower
one. If no suitable alternative is found, playback stops. You
must enter the 4-digit password or change the rating level
in order to play the disc.
