System Setup

Password

The DVD 5's Password System is used to control
viewing of restricted programs and one's capa-
bility to change the password itself. The DVD 5 is
shipped without a password and with the set-
tings for the password system unlocked. The fol-
lowing instructions will show how to add a
password and to lock the settings.

word, consisting of four digits, must be entered:

PLAY.
2. Press ENTER or ARROW (right), Password
Menu appears.

20 SYSTEM SETUP
5. When the OK icon is highlighted, press ENTER
to finish password input, Confirm Password
display appears below the Enter Password
Display.
6. Press the NUMBER (0~9) buttons on the
remote to enter same password for con-
firmation.
7. When incorrect password is entered, new
password menu appears and you can enter
and confirm the password again. This time, as
help the correct password is repeated in each
digit of the upper "Try Again" menu and the
incorrect password in the lower "Confirm
Password" menu, appearing after the upper is
passed.
8. After the correct password is entered in all
menus, press ENTER, the main password
menu will return and a red key symbol
appears in the front display. To return to Set
Up Menu press ARROW (left). The lock symbol
in the Set Up Menu appears closed to show
that the rating is locked.
I After password is memorized, all password
menus are available only after correct pass-
word is entered. If incorrect password is
entered, new password menu appears where
the correct password can be entered again.
I Note that the time delay before the password
can be re-entered will increase with each
attempt. This prevents attempts to find the
correct password by trial and error.
I It's most important that you note the pass-
word in a safe place or remember it reliably
as access to rated discs or rating/password
menus or changing or clearing the password
(see next pages) is not possible without
entering the correct password.
