Changing the parental lock settings

Parental lock levels may be set for the DVD player as well as for the television. The DVD player
setting is determined by the movie's rating; the TV settings are determined by the V-Chip stan-
dards. Registering passwords and setting parental lock levels prevents children from seeing
violent or adult scenes.
Protection levels and passwords cannot be changed during the play of DVDs. Press the [Stop/
Eject] button to operate.

DVD/Movie Standards

G: General Audiences. All Ages Admitted
Contains nothing which would, in the view of the rating board, be offensive to parents whose
younger children view the film.
PG: Parental Guidance Suggested. Some Material May Not Be Suitable For Children
This is a film which clearly needs to be examined by parents before they let their children
watch. The label PG indicates that some parents may consider some material unsuitable for
their children, but the parent must make the decision.
PG-13: Parents Strongly Cautioned. May Be Inappropriate For Children Under 13
PG-13 is a stronger warning to parents to determine the viewing by their younger children,
since some material might not be suited for them.
R: Restricted. Under 17 Requires Accompanying Parent Or Adult Guardian
In the opinion of the rating board, this film contains some adult material and parents are urged
to find out more about this film before they allow their children to view it.
NC-17: No One 17 And Under Admitted
This rating declares that the Rating Board believes that this is a film that most parents will
consider too adult for their youngsters under 17. No children should be allowed to view an
NC-17 film. The reasons for an NC-17 rating can be violence, sex, aberrational behavior, drug
abuse, or any other element which most parents would consider too strong for viewing by their
children.
