Parental Controls Levels 37
• When you play a Disc whose rat-
ing exceeds the level you set, a
message will appear on the
screen, indicating the Disc cannot
play. If this happens, remove the
Disc, then select a level that
allows playback. Or, select All to
turn off Parental Controls. Load
the Disc again and begin playback
as usual. Some Discs may allow
you to enter your four-digit pass-
word to begin playback. Refer to
the instructions of the Disc.
• Some DVDs are not compatible
with Parental Controls. Make sure
the DVD plays according to the
Parental Controls settings you
have made before you allow chil-
dren access to the DVD Player.
• You can not change Parental Level
settings until you enter the correct
password.
