Using parental controls
Playback restrictions can be placed on your DVD player by choosing a level of parental con-
trol and setting up a system password using the settings menu. See “Parental control setup
submenu” on page 32. For information on using the system settings menu, see “Changing
System Settings” on page 21.
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) standard movie ratings are mapped to
specific parental levels of control in the following table. There are eight levels, each less
restrictive of content than the level below. The DVD player in your new LIFESTYLE

home
entertainment system can be set to any of these eight levels.
The password you created will prevent unauthorized viewing of DVD videos having a rating
higher than the parental control setting. When you load a DVD video into a system having a
parental control setting of 4, for example, only DVD videos have a MPAA rating of 4 (PG-13)
and lower can be played without entering a password.
The password also prevents others from changing the parental control setting without per-
mission.
