Authorizing discs
Insert the disc. See ‘Loading discs’.
The ‘child protect’ dialog will appear.
You will be asked to enter your 4-digit code for ‘Playback
Once’ or ‘Playback Always.’ If you select ‘Playback Once’, the
disc can be played as long as it is in the player and the
player is ON. If you select ‘Playback Always’, the disc will
become child safe (authorized) and can always be played,
even if the Child Lock is set to ON.
Notes:
The player memory maintains a list of 120 authorized
(‘Child safe’) disc titles. A disc will be placed in the list when
‘Playback Always’ is selected in the ‘child protect’ dialog.
Each time a ‘child safe’ disc is played, it will be placed on
top of the list. When the list is full and a new disc is added, the
last disc in the list will be removed from the list.
Double sided DVDs may have a different ID for each side. In
order to make the disc ‘child safe’, each side has to be
authorized.
Multi-volume VCDs may have a different ID for each
volume. In order to make the complete set ‘child safe’, each
volume has to be authorized.
Choose 'Play always' to remove the disk from the
child-safe list
Deauthorizing discs
Insert the disc. See ‘Loading discs’.
Playback starts automatically.
Press 9 while { is visible.

Access control; Parental
control (DVD only)
Movies on DVDs may contain scenes not suitable for
children. Therefore, discs may contain ‘Parental Control’
information which applies to the complete disc or to
certain scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated from 1
to 8, and alternative, more suitable scenes are available on
the disc. Ratings are country dependent. The ‘Parental
Control’ feature allows you to prevent discs from being
played by your children or to have certain discs played with
alternative scenes.
