Child lock
Many DVDs and VCDs/S-VCDs have a parent guidance rating
to indicate the age group for which the given DVD/VCD/S-
VCD is suitable. The age group for DVD/VCD/S-VCD is usually
indicated on the disc sleeve and/or on the DVD/VCD/S-VCD
itself.
The DVD Player features a child lock with three settings to
prevent playback of DVDs/VCDs/S-VCDs that have not been
released for the set age group.
The three child lock ratings are:
G
Will only play DVDs/VCDs/S-VCDs with no
age limit, i.e. for 0 years and older.
PG-13
Will not play DVDs/VCDs/S-VCDs rated for
persons of 13 years and older.
Adult
Will play all DVDs/VCDs/S-VCDs even if
rated for persons of 18 years/adults only.
