Parental Control Disclaimer

This DVD Player features the PARENTAL CONTROL
system, which is intended to be active when playing DVD
discs with certain software coding. This is according to
technical standards adopted by the set maker and disc
content industries.
Please note that PARENTAL CONTROL will not control a
DVD that does not have the appropriate software coding.
At the time of release of this DVD Player, certain aspects of
the technical standards had not been settled between set
makers and the disc content industries.
For these reasons, Philips cannot guarantee the functioning
of PARENTAL CONTROL and denies any liability
associated with unintended watching of discs.
If in doubt, please make sure the disc plays according to
your PARENTAL CONTROL settings before you allow
children access to the DVD Player.
