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 Code
feature. The player does not play certain
scenes on these discs, depending on the
Country 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 39)
