Parental Control
MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) Guideline is a
rating system that provides advanced cautionary information to
parent about the content of movie programs.
The parental lock level is equivalent to the following MPAA
Rating System.
Level 8: Adult
Level 7: NC-17 (No one 17 and under admitted)
Level 6: R (Restricted)
Level 4: PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned)
Level 3: PG (Parental guidance suggested)
Level 1: G (General audiences)
Some DVD discs contain a restriction level which enables
parents to prevent playback of discs by children. This unit is
equipped with a password designed to prevent children changing
the level.
You cannot play DVD video discs rated higher than the level
you selected unless you cancel the parental lock function.
For example, when you select level “5”, the unit will not play
discs with ratings of “6”, “7” or “8”.
The information will appear on the TV screen.
Note:
DVD video discs may or may not respond to the parental lock
settings. Make sure this function works with your DVD video
discs.
