Ratings Menu
DVD discs can be published with audience rating information or with multiple versions of
the video appropriate for different audiences. The ratings menu is designed to allow
parents to limit what sort
of DVD programs can be watched by other family members without the parents' private
password. (Unfortunately, as of the publication date of this manual, many DVDs are
published without rating information and will play regardless of the parental control
setting.)
Password
If the lock icon to the right is open, enter any 4-digit security code with the numeric
buttons of the remote and press SELECT. This will engage the parental controls feature
and lock out others from this menu.
If the lock to the right is closed, the "Ratings" cannot be changed without first re-
entering the previously set 4-digit code and pressing SELECT. (During playback of a disc
with a higher rating, you will be prompted for your password, enter the same four
digits, then press SELECT.)
Ratings
Highlight the current rating and make changes with the left/right arrow keys. Then
press the up arrow once, enter a password, and press SELECT to lock out further
changes. Press the up arrow again or press SETTINGS or EXIT to leave the "Ratings"
menu.
