DVD video discs equipped with the parental lock
function are rated according to their content. The
contents allowed by a parental lock level and the way
a DVD video disc can be controlled may vary from
disc to disc. For example, if the disc allowed you
could edit out violent scenes unsuitable for children
and replace them with more suitable scenes, or lock
out playback of the disc altogether.

parental lock settings. This is not a defect in the player.
Make sure this function works with your DVD video
discs.
