Setting the Parental Lock Level

This player lets you set the Parental Lock if the DVD has a parental lock level recorded on it. With Parental Lock capable discs, you can block access to material you feel is inappropriate for your children. Refer to the DVD disc jacket and the accompanying documentation to see if a particular disc contains a parental lock level.

Make changes to the [Parental Lock] setting in the Setup screen General menu. Please note that changes to the Parental Lock level cannot be made when a disc is playing. Stop playback of the disc before attempting to make any changes.

When a DVD with a set Parental Lock level is played

Playback cannot be started until the password has been correctly input by moving the cursor control joystick or the number buttons, and ENTER has been pressed.

Entering the password

When you select either “Level Change” or “Password Change”, it is necessary to enter the password (4-digit code number). Use the following steps at any time you are asked to enter or confirm your password.

1 Move the cursor control joystick up or down or the number buttons to select a number between 0 and 9.

You can also use the number buttons to enter the numbers directly. When entering your password for the first time, or changing it, you will be asked to reenter your password. When using the number buttons to confirm the password, the numbers appear as asterisks, and the cursor advances automatically to the next position.

Be sure not to forget your password. If you should forget it, reset the system, and enter a new password. To reset the system, see ‘Resetting the Player to System Settings’ (page 75). Please note that this procedure resets the system, and clears all saved settings, not just the password.

Setting the Parental Lock level

Parental Lock level information should be printed on the DVD disc jacket or accompanying documentation if it is featured. Generally speaking, level 8 offers no restriction on viewing and level 1 provides the strictest viewing restrictions.
