Make sure your discs play according to your Parental Controls settings before you allow children access to the player. – Some DVDs are not encoded with a rating though the movie rating is printed on the disc jacket. The rating level feature does not work for such discs. Notes: – The player memory can maintain 120 authorised (‘Child safe’) disc titles. A disc will be placed in the list when ‘Play Always’ is selected. – Each time a ‘child safe’ disc is played, it will be placed on top of the list. When the list is full, the last disc in the list will be replaced when a new disc is added. – Two-sided DVDs and multi-volume VCDs may have a different ID for each side or volume. In order to make the disc ‘Child safe’, each side has to be authorised.
