Password
The password setting works in conjunction with the rating setting (the next menu item) to provide a means of limiting content playback by children (parental control).
You will see there are four dashes and a padlock symbol. Normally the padlock symbol will be open and this means the parental control is unlocked. Under this condition the rating setting may be freely changed.
To lock the parental control, choose a suitable four digit number. Don’t forget your password as you will need to know it to unlock the player. Highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit number using the numerical keys on the handset.
When all four digits have been entered, press OK on the handset. The player is now locked and you will not be able to change the rating setting.
To unlock the parental control, highlight ‘Password’ and enter your four digit number, followed by OK.
NOTE: You can change the password any time you lock the player.

The term ‘Parental level’ refers to a standard defined for DVDs. DVD movies may have a parental level between 1 and
8.Note that this only applies to DVD video discs that have the parental level correctly implemented. Some DVD video titles do not respond to parental control settings, and Video CDs have no mechanism for parental control.

No Adult Only material of parental level 4 or less may be played. This corresponds to the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) rating of
Kids Only Only material of parental level 1 may be played.
This corresponds to MPAA rating G.
Once the rating level has been set, DVD titles with parental level higher than the setting will not play. Sometimes DVD video titles may be produced that have the parental level set for specific scenes, so a disc will play but skip or substitute certain scenes.
