Parental Lock and Other Options

Exploring the CHILD and OTHERS Setup Pages

The CHILD and OTHERS Setup Pages contains many important options for your DVD player. The CHILD menu is where you can set a password to control the Parental Lock and Reset functions, which let you limit the play of discs beyond a rating you specify, and reset the settings and password to factory defaults, respectively. The OTHERS menu contains the FACTORY SETTING option, as well as the MNCOLOR setting, which allows you to change the color of the On-Screen Setup Menu.

For Help on Using the Setup Menu, see pg 37.

CHILD - LEVELS 1-8

The Parental Lock allows you to limit the use of your DVD Player to only those DVD discs that do not exceed the rating you specify. When the Parental Control is set, DVD discs that support this feature will play only after the password has been entered. However, typically only discs produced by major entertainment companies support Parental Control. Discs not supporting this feature will be “immune” to Lock-Out.

When you attempt to change the Parental Control setting, you are prompted for a password. This of course makes sense, as this option would be useless if your kids could enter the Setup Menu and disable it! If there is no user password set, you’ll be prompted to enter a new password. Choose a 4-Digit numeric password and write it down in case you forget it. Key in the password and press ENTER.

After the password is set, press ENTER on the CHILD option. You can choose from 8 levels of Parental Control, corresponding to the standard rating system in the USA. The available levels and their equivalent ratings are listed to the right:

CHANGE & CANCEL PASSWORD

Here is where you can change or Cancel your existing password. If you have not already entered the existing password in the Setup Menu, you are prompted for the old password. Enter the existing password for access. *If you have forgotten your password, you cannot use these options - you must reset the player to factory defaults (see below), clearing the previously entered password. After this, you can create a new password as discussed above.

MNCOLOR - BLUE / VIOLET / GREEN / YLW / ORG

Changes the Menu Color to the hue you specify.
