Parental Controls Levels 29

You can set the Player to block or allow DVD playback according to the movie rating of the DVD. If someone tries to play a DVD that has a rating that exceeds the level you selected, they must know your password. You must enter the password before the DVD will play. Password details are on page 27.

Not all DVDs conform to the levels you select, as not all DVDs are coded or protected by the DVD manufacturer. Therefore, make sure the DVD plays according to your Parental level choice before you allow children unlimited access to the Player or DVDs.

To prevent specific DVDs from playing on this Player, regardless of how you set the PARENTAL level, see page 28.

5 Press 8 or 9 to choose the Parental level at which you want to restrict playback, then press OK.

For example, if you do not want children to watch movies rated above PG, select 3 PG. DVDs rated PG can play without entering a password; however, DVDs rated PG-13, R, NC-17, or X (ADULT) cannot play unless you enter your password. (Follow additional instructions provided by the DVD if necessary.)

Select NO PARENTAL if you want the Player to play all DVDs, regardless of their movie rating. You will not have to enter a pass- word in order to play a DVD. (However, you still can lock specific DVDs to prevent playback. Details are on page 28.)
