To give you some control over what your 
children watch on your DVD player, some 
DVD-Video discs feature a Parental Lock level. 
If your player is set to a lower level than the 
disc, the disc won’t play. 

Some discs also support the Country/Area 
Code feature. The player does not play certain 
scenes on these discs, depending on the 
Country/Area Code you set.

 Note

• Not all discs use Parental Lock, and will 

play without requiring the password first.

• If you forget your password, you’ll need to 

reset the player to register a new password 
(see 

Resetting the player

 on page 53).

Registering a new password

You must register a password before you can 
change the Parental Lock level or enter a 
Country code.
