Parental Lock

• Default level: Off; Default password: none; Default Country/Area
code: us (2119)
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 41).
