Parental Control
MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) Guideline is a rating system that provides advanced cautionary information to parent about the content of movie programs.
The parental lock level is equivalent to the following MPAA Rating System.
Level 7:
Level 6: R (Restricted)
Level 4:
Level 3: PG (Parental guidance suggested)
Level 1: G (General audiences)
Some DVD discs contain a restriction level which enables parents to prevent playback of discs by children. This unit is equipped with a password designed to prevent children changing the level.
You cannot play DVD video discs rated higher than the level you selected unless you cancel the parental lock function. For example, when you select level “5”, the unit will not play discs with ratings of “6”, “7” or “8”.
The information will appear on the TV screen.
If you forget the password…
Enter “788444” even if 4 digits
to clear the current password.
Enter a new password and set the parental lock level again.
Note:
DVD video discs may or may not respond to the parental lock settings. Make sure this function works with your DVD video discs.
