When a button is pressed and this setting is ON* , the screen shows that button’s name and/or icon, etc. Turn this OFF if you do not need this kind of on-screen display.

For discs which support different angles (see page 23), this allows the angle indicator mark to be displayed (ON*) or not (OFF) when an alternative angle is available on the section of the disc being played back.

It is possible to protect the playback of discs containing material unsuitable for viewing by children which parents do not wish their children to view, as DVD discs can contain information regarding their suitability for children recorded on them. Such levels may vary from country to country, and this unit allows such variable restrictions .

Before a disc protected in this way can be played back on the unit, it is necessary to enter a password which temporarily changes the level to a more “relaxed” value.

These different levels of protection also allow you to change the levels of protection as your children grow up, for example.

NOTE: If the user settings are reset, the password (and hence parental control) is disabled.

The first time that you use the unit (or the first time that you use the unit after resetting to factory settings), other parental lock options are disabled. All you can do is enter a 4-digit password using the number buttons on the remote control unit.

Enter this number (and remember it!), as you will need it to change the level of control in the future as well as to temporarily unlock discs for playback.
