How to Set Ratings
Some DVD Movie discs have encoded rating levels that
allow the setting of the MVP851 to prevent children from
viewing inappropriate movies in your absence. A password
protected lock function, set by you, sets the rating limit for
disc playback. In the example below the Rating Limit will
be set to Level 3 with a password of 1234.
Note: A Rating Level of 8 allows viewing of all DVD Movies
and “0 Lock All” prevents any disc from being viewed.
It is advisable to write down the password for future
reference, as once a password has been entered it will
stay in effect until removed or changed.
1. Press the SETUP Push-button on the Remote Control
to access the On-Screen Setup Disc Menu. Refer to fig-
ure 4 on page 18 and figure 8 on page 19.
Note: If a disc is playing when the SETUP Push-button is
depressed it will stop. When the SETUP Mode is
exited the disc will resume playing.
2. Select the Ratings Icon by using the Up or Down
directional Push-buttons followed by the SELECT
Push-button on the supplied Remote Control.
3. The Ratings Menu will now appear On-Screen with the
default selection of 8 No Limit. Refer to figure 9.
4. Using the Up or Down directional Push-buttons
select a Rating Limit of 3 followed by the SELECT
Push-button. Refer to figures 10 and 11.
5. Enter the Password of 1234, using the Numeric Push-
buttons on the Remote Control, into the On-Screen
Password Icon followed by the SELECT Push-button.
Refer to figure 12.
Note: If an undesired number is entered, the CLEAR Push-
button on the Remote Control can be used to remove
it. Each press of the push-button will remove one digit
at a time starting with the digit on the right side.
6. The Setup Disc Menu will reappear. If no other
changes are to be made in Setup Mode at this time, exit
by pressing the RETURN Push-button and the
MVP851 will return to normal operation.
