Player Setup Menu

The Player Setup menu contains a number of setup
parameters that are normally adjusted only once to
establish basic operational settings for the DVD 25.

From the Main menu, use the 

K

/

L

Navigation

Buttons

to select the Player menu, then press

the

Navigation Button

or 

Enter Button

to access the Player menu. The left column shows the
items in the menu. The right column shows the current
setting of each item.

Parental Control

The DVD 25’s Password System is used to control
viewing of restricted programs and the capability 
to change the password itself and the rating. The
DVD 25 is shipped with “8888” as the default pass-
word and with the parental control settings off. The 
following instructions will show how to change the
password and lock the settings.

NOTE:

The DVD must be specifically encoded with

rating information for Parental Control to work.

The Rating Levels

The five MPAA rating symbols are “G” (General, Level
2), “PG” (Parental Guidance, Level 4), “PG13”
(Parental Guidance and 13 years old, Level 4), “R”
(Restricted, Level 6) and “NC 17” (from 17 years old,
Level 7). The DVD 25 will accommodate a total of
eight rating steps, as set by the DVD creators. These
additional steps allow for more critical control of pro-
gram playback for all audiences.

Level 8: All DVDs can be played.
Levels 7 to 2: DVDs for general audiences/children
can be played.
Level 1: DVDs for children can be played, DVDs for
adults/general audiences are prohibited.

Password

If you change the password from the factory default
setting, please remember to write the new password 
in a safe place. You cannot access rated discs or 
rating/password menus or change or clear the 
password (see below) without entering the correct
password.

If you forget your password, you can reset DVD 25 to
the factory default password (8888) when the player
is in Standby by pressing and holding the 

Clear

Button

for six seconds.

NOTE:

This will restore 

all menu settings to the factory default settings.
Any changes you have made will be lost.

Enter Password and Setting Level

For disabling the playback of rated DVDs, a password
consisting of four digits must be entered.

then press the

Navigation Button 

9

or 

Enter

Button

9

to access the Parental Control submenu.

PASSWORD appears in the right column. Enter the
password (the initial password is 8888).

If the password is correct, the following display will
appear in the menu:

When the ratings list appears press the 

K

/

L

Navigation Buttons

9

to select the desired ratings

control level.

REMEMBER:

The lower the number, the

higher the restriction. When the level you prefer is high-

Enter Button

to activate it.

Change Password

After the password was entered or the parental control
level was set, use the 

L

Navigation Button

9

to

make sure the cursor is pointing to NEW PASSWORD.
Enter the new password. The display will change to
CONFIRM, requesting that you repeat the new 
password to confirm that it is correct. If you have 
correctly entered the new password twice, the display
will confirm the change with “OK.” Press the 

M

Navigation Button

9

to exit the level/password

submenu.
