Setting the Parental Lock Level
This player lets you set the Parental Lock if the DVD has a parental lock level recorded on it. With Parental Lock capable discs, you can block access to material you feel is inappropriate for your children. Refer to the DVD jacket and the accompanying documentation to see if a particular disc contains a parental lock level.
Make changes to the [Parental Lock] setting in the Setup screen General menu. Please note that changes to the Parental Lock level cannot be made when a disc is playing. Stop playback of the disc before attempting to make any changes.
You cannot select [Level] or [Country Code] until you have registered a password. Select [Password] to register a new password. See “Entering the password” on this page for how to register a new password.

Notes
•Be sure not to forget your password. If you should forget it, reset the system, and enter a new password. To reset the system, see “Resetting the DVD Receiver to System Settings” (page 76).
Please note that this procedure resets the system, and clears all saved settings, not just the password.
•Some discs lock out violent scenes. Refer to instruction notes on discs.
■Setting the Parental Lock Level
Change the Parental Lock level to a higher or lower level according to the settings printed on the DVD disc jacket or accompanying documentation. If you use the Condition Memory function to save the settings for a particular disc, the Parental Lock level is saved as well. Because it is saved in memory, Parental Lock levels can be set for individual discs according to their content rather than a set level for all DVDs.
1Select [Level] in the [Parental Lock] setting and press
ENTER.
The screen changes to the password input screen. You cannot select [Level] until you have registered a password. To enter the password, refer to “Entering the Password” on this page.
