Parental control

system that provides advanced cautionary information to parents about
the content of movie programmes.
The parental lock level is equivalent to the following MPAA rating system.

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 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.
