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 disc 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 the this page for how to register a new password.
