Notes on discs

!

Do not affix stickers or labels to the discs.

They could peel off and damage COMAND.

Stickers can cause the disc to bend, which

can result in read errors and disc

recognition problems.

!

COMAND is designed to play discs that

comply with the EN 60908 standard.

Therefore, you can only use discs with a

maximum thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker discs, e.g. those that

contain data on both sides (DVD on one

side and audio data on the other), they

cannot be ejected and can damage the

device.
Only use round discs with a diameter of

12 cm. Do not use discs with a diameter of

8 cm, even with an adapter.

Playback problems may occur when playing

copied discs. There are a large variety of

discs, DVD authoring software, writing

software and writers available. This variety

means that there is no guarantee that the

system will be able to play discs that you have

copied yourself.

DVD playback conditions

If video DVDs do not conform to the NTSC or

PAL TV standards, they may create picture,

sound or other problems during playback.
COMAND is capable of playing back video

DVDs produced according to the following

standards:

R

Region code 1 or region code 0 (no region

code)

R

PAL or NTSC standard

You will generally find the relevant details

either on the DVD itself or on the DVD case.

i

If you insert a video DVD with a different

region code, you will see a message to this

effect.

COMAND is set to region code 1 at the

factory. This setting can be changed at an

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. This will

allow you to play video DVDs with a

different region code, provided that they

are produced in accordance with the PAL

or NTSC standard. The region code can be

changed up to five times.

Function restrictions

Depending on the DVD, it is possible that

certain functions or actions will be

temporarily blocked or may not function at all.

As soon as you try to activate these functions

or actions, you will see the K symbol in the

display.
