Parental Control
Rating
DVD
Movies on DVDs may contain scenes not suitable for chil-
dren. Therefore, discs may contain Parental Control infor-
mation that applies to the complete disc or to certain
scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated from 1 to 8,
and alternatively, more suitable scenes are available for
selection on some discs. Ratings are country dependent.
DVD video discs may or may not respond to the parental
control setting if the Area code of the disc is set wrongly.
The Parental Control feature allows you to prevent discs
from being played by your children or to have certain discs
played with alternative scenes.
