44 Parental Lock Levels
• Some DVDs are not compatible with
Parental Lock. Make sure the DVD
plays according to the Parental Lock
settings you have made.
• The TV/DVD will not allow you to
change LEVEL settings until you enter
the correct password.
• When you try to play a Disc that has
a rating that exceeds the level you set,
a message will appear on the screen,
indicating the Disc cannot be played.
If this happens, remove the Disc, then
select a level that allows playback. Or
select NONE to turn off Parental
Lock. Load the Disc again and begin
playback as usual. Some Discs may
allow you to simply enter your 4-digit
password, then begin playback auto-
matically. Follow the instructions pro-
vided by the Disc message.
