certain scenes on the disc. This feature
lets you set a playback limitation level.
The rating levels are from 1 to 8 and are

playing of certain discs that are not
suitable for your children, or have certain
discs played with alternative scenes.

ages.

you selected will not play unless you
enter your four-digit pin code.
Helpful hints:
– This feature will not limit viewing if the
disc manufacturer did not code the disc.
– VCD, SVCD, CD have no level indication,
so parental control has no effect on these
type of discs. This also applies to most illegal
DVDs.
– Some DVDs are not coded with a rating
though the movie rating may be printed on
the Disc cover. The rating level feature does
not prohibit play of such Discs.
TIPS: The underlined option is the factory default setting.
