English Setting the parental control level This feature lets you set a playback limitation level. Some DVDs may have a parental level assigned to the complete disc or to certain scenes on the disc. The rating levels are from 1 to 8 and are country dependent. You can prohibit the playing of certain discs that are not suitable for your children or have certain discs played with alternative scenes. 1 Press SETUP.

Rating - NO PARENT If parental control is not activated, it will play all discs. Rating - 1 to 8 If the player's parental level is set below 8, only discs with a lower or equal level will play. For example, if the player is set to 6, only discs with ratings of 6, 4, 3 and 1 will be played. Higher rated scenes will not be played unless an alternative that has the same rating or lower is available on the disc. For example, consider a disc that generally is suitable for most audiences, and it is rated at level 1 for the most part. However, in the middle, there are also scenes rated at 6 (not suitable for children). Rating explanations 8 ADULT - Mature material; should be viewed only by adults due to graphic sexual material, violence, or language. 7 NC-17 - No children under age 17; not recommended viewing for children under age 17. 6 PG-R - Parental Guidance - Restricted; recommended that parents restrict children under 17 from viewing or allow to view only when supervised by a parent or adult guardian. 5 - Reserved. 4 PG13 - Material is unsuitable for children under age 13. 3 PG - Parental Guidance suggested. 2 - Reserved. 1 G - General Audience; recommended as acceptable for viewers of all ages. Helpful Hint: - Some DVDs are not encoded with a rating though the movie rating is printed on the disc jacket. The rating level feature does not work for such discs.
