movie rating. Some DVDs may give you the option of entering your
password to allow playback. If not, change the PARENTAL setting so you
can watch the Disc.
Not all DVDs conform to the levels you select, as not all DVDs are coded
or protected by the DVD manufacturer.Therefore, make sure the DVD
plays according to your PARENTAL setting before you allow children
unlimited access to the Player or DVDs.
To prevent specific DVDs from playing, regardless of how you set the
PARENTAL level, see page 29.
