Parental Control
Rating
Movies on DVDs may contain scenes not suitable for chil-
dren. Therefore, discs may contain Parental Control infor-
mation that applies to the complete disc or to certain scenes
on the disc. These scenes are rated from 1 to 8, where
some discs offer more suitable scenes for selection. Ratings
are country dependent. The Parental Control feature allows
you to prevent discs from being played by your children or
have certain discs played with alternative scenes.
