Lock (Parental Control) Settings
Rating
Some movies contain scenes that may not be suit-
able for children to view. Many of these discs contain
parental control information that applies to the com-
plete disc or to certain scenes on the disc. Movies
and scenes are rated from 1 to 8, depending on the
area. DVD video discs may or may not respond to
the parental control setting if the Area code of the
disc is set wrongly. Some discs offer more suitable
scenes as an alternative. Ratings are area depend-
ent. The parental control feature allows you to block
access to scenes below the rating you input, thereby
preventing your children from being able to view
material you believe is unsuitable.
