Pioneer DV-533K, DV-440 Setting the Parental Lock Level DVD, Entering the Password

Setting the Parental Lock

Level – DVD

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.

When a DVD with a set Parental Lock level is loaded

Playback cannot be started until the code number has been correctly input by using the cursor buttons (2/ 3/5/∞) or the number buttons, and ENTER has been pressed.

Entering the Password

When you select either [Level] or [Country Code], it is necessary to register the password (4-digit code number). You’ll be asked to confirm your existing password before registering a new one. Use the following steps at any time you are asked to enter or confirm your password.

1 Use the cursor buttons (5/∞) or the number buttons to select a number between 0 and 9.

You can also use the number buttons to enter the numbers directly. When entering your password for the first time, or changing it, you will be asked to reenter your password. When using the number buttons to confirm the password, the numbers appear as asterisks, and the cursor advances automatically to the next position.
