way, you can disable viewing regardless of the rating of the DVD. You will
need to know your 4-digit code in order to view the Disc.

If you select Play Once, the Disc will play one time. If you stop play-
back, open the Disc tray, or turn off the Recorder’s power, the
Access Control screen will reappear when you try to play the Disc
again.
If you select Play Always, the Disc will play even if you turn off the
DVD Recorder, open the disc tray, or set Child Lock to Ç
