Setting the Rating
Rated Titles
The Rating option lets you determine how your player will react to discs that contain movies that are rated (in
the U.S.A., the Motion Pictures Association of America (MPAA) rates movies as G, PG, PG-13, etc.).
You decide which ratings require a password and which ones don’t. This system ranks the ratings 1 through 8
in order to accommodate different countries’ ratings systems (1 is considered a movie title with the least
offensive material).
In order for the Rating Level feature to work, the disc must be encoded with rating information. If the author
of the disc did not encode rating information, then this feature will not work for that disc.
The DVD Player must be locked (password protected) in order for it to enforce the settings in the Rating
menu.
1. If a disc is playing, press STOP and MENU (the menu appears).
2. Use the arrow buttons to highlight the Rating option. Press OK (the 8-level
rating limits list appears).
3. To change the rating limit, press the up or down arrow button.
4. When you have highlighted the desired settings, press OK. You are returned
to the menu and the setting appears to the right of the Rating option. This
means when the player is locked, it will require you to enter the password to
play any discs that are rated higher than the limit you’ve set.
Note: Some titles (movies) aren’t rated, but may contain material that
is unsuitable for children.
