Parental Control Setting - Sanyo DVD-L70 Instruction Manual

PARENTAL CONTROL SETTING

Some discs are specified not suitable for
children. Such discs can be limited not to play
back with the unit.
If you set restrictions to who can watch this
unit, you can prevent your children from
watching violent scenes and adult pictures.
However the viewer restrictions set here are
only valid with discs with the parental control
function.
Parental Control
MPAA (Motion Picture Association of
America) Guideline is a rating system that
provides advanced cautionary information to
parent about the content of movie programs.
The parental lock level is equivalent to the
following MPAA Rating System.
Level 7: NC-17 (No one 17 and under
admitted)
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 video 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.
When you select level "Off", all DVD video
discs can be played back.
