COMAND can playback video DVDs meet- ing the following requirements: 앫 Correct regional code 앫 NTSC or PAL TV standard The appropriate information is usually giv- en either on the DVD or the DVD box. The factory setting of COMAND is regional code 1. The setting can be changed at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. This will allow you to playback video DVDs with other regional codes, as long as they com- ply with the NTSC or PAL TV standard.

Control systems COMAND video DVD

Warning!

Notes about video DVD operation

COMAND can playback commercially available, prerecorded video DVDs that bear the following label. You will usually find the label on the DVD booklet, the inlay, or the DVD itself.

i Video DVDs differ from recordable DVD-R and DVD-RW discs.

i There may be playback problems when play- ing copied DVDs. There is a large variety of discs, disc-writing soft- ware and writers available. This variety means that there is no guarantee that the system will be able to play discs that you have written/copied yourself.

Some DVDs may not comply with the NTSC or PAL TV playback standards. Sound, picture and other playback prob- lems may occur when you play such DVDs.

COMAND is classified as a Class 1 laser product. You must not open the casing. There is a risk of exposure to invisible laser radiation if you open the casing, or if the casing is faulty or damaged. COMAND does not contain any parts that you are able to maintain yourself. For safety reasons, all maintenance work must be car- ried out by qualified technicians.

Automatic picture fade-out

If a video DVD is playing when the vehicle is shifted from park position P into neutral position N, drive position D or reverse gear R the picture is faded out automati- cally and the following message appears in the display: “In order not to distract driver, picture is faded out while the vehicle is in motion”. When the vehicle is shifted back into park position P, the picture comes on again.

pose to label discs.

앫 Place discs back in their boxes after

use.

앫 Protect discs from heat and direct sun-

light.

Functional limitations

Depending on the DVD, it is possible that certain functions or actions may be tempo- rarily or permanently unavailable. If you try to utilize such functions or carry out such actions, you will see the 7 symbol in the display.

Warning!

Only insert or eject a DVD when the vehicle is stationary. There is a risk of accident by being distracted from road and traffic condi- tions if you load a DVD while the vehicle is in motion.

Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is covering a distance of 44 feet (approximate- ly 14 m) every second.

왘 Inserting a DVD (컄 page 116). or 왘 Ejecting a DVD (컄 page 118).

! Do not affix stickers or labels to the discs. These could peel away and damage COMAND. COMAND is designed to hold discs which com- ply with the IEC 60908 standard. You can there- fore 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 COMAND. Do not use discs with an 8 cm diameter, even if they have an adapter. Only use round discs with a 12 cm diameter. 앫 Only hold discs by the edge. 앫 Handle discs carefully to prevent play-

back problems.

앫 Avoid getting scratches, fingerprints

and dust on discs.

앫 Clean discs from time to time with a

commercially-available cleaning cloth. Do not wipe them with a circular mo- tion, but only in straight lines from the center outwards.

왔 COMAND telephone* Safety precautions

Warning!

Some jurisdictions prohibit the driver from using a mobile telephone while driving. Whether or not prohibited by law, for safety reasons, the driver should not use the mo- bile telephone while the vehicle is in motion. Stop the vehicle in a safe location before placing or answering a call.

If you nonetheless choose to use the mobile phone1 while driving, please use the hands- free feature and be sure to pay attention to the traffic situation at all times. Use the mo- bile phone only when road, weather and traf- fic conditions permit. Otherwise, you may not be able to observe traffic conditions and could endanger yourself and others.

Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is covering a distance of 44 feet (approxima- tely 14 m) every second.

1 Observe all legal requirements.

Warning!

Never operate radio transmitters equipped with a built-in or attached antenna (i.e. with- out being connected to an external antenna) from inside the vehicle while the engine is running. Doing so could lead to a malfunc- tion of the vehicle’s electronic system, pos- sibly resulting in an accident and/or personal injury.

ence, and

Operating options

i The components and operating principles of COMAND can be found on (컄 page 83) and (컄 page 92).

i Various mobile phone cradles can be in- stalled in the front center armrest, see separate installation instructions for the mobile phone cradle. These mobile phone cradles can be ob- tained from an authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen- ter. For more information about telephone (컄 page 519). When the mobile phone is inserted in the cradle, you can operate the telephone us- ing the following devices: 앫 mobile phone keypad 앫 COMAND telephone keypad 앫 buttons s and t on the multi- function steering wheel (컄 page 283)

앫 Voice Control (컄 page 308) 앫 Bluetooth® headset (컄 page 153)

Please note that these functions are only available with Mercedes-Benz approved mobile phones. Please contact an autho- rized Mercedes-Benz Center for informa- tion on features available for your mobile phone of choice. You can control other functions of the mo- bile phone via the COMAND, instrument cluster control system (컄 page 294) or Voice Control.

i In order for the functions described in this section to work correctly, the Bluetooth® head- set must be linked to COMAND (컄 page 176). Please make sure any Bluetooth® headset linked with the mobile phone is switched off or that the headset is linked with COMAND before you in- sert the mobile phone in the cradle (컄 page 519) and use the telephone functions with COMAND.

The descriptions in this section assume that the mobile phone is inserted in the cradle. Exceptions to this are clearly stated.

Unless otherwise indicated, the descrip- tions and illustrations in this section refer to COMAND and the telephone keypad. Operation using the mobile phone and Bluetooth® headset is described in the re- spective separate Operating Instructions.

Caller ID COMAND can display the telephone num- ber and the name of the caller, e.g. for an incoming call and also in other menus or displays. For the telephone number to be displayed, the caller must transmit their telephone number. This is also the case for name displays. For this, the telephone number and the name of the caller must also be saved in the mo- bile phone book.

138

Control systems COMAND telephone*

Functional restrictions You will not be able to use the telephone, or you may have to wait a while, in the fol- lowing situations: 앫 If the telephone has not yet logged into

the network. The telephone automatically tries to log into a network. If no network is available, you will also not be able to make a “911” emergency call. If you attempt to make an outgoing call, the “No Service” message will appear for a short while.

앫 If the mobile phone is not inserted in

the cradle.

앫 SIM card is not inserted in GSM type

phone.

Notes about COMAND telephone fea- tures using a Bluetooth® connection Many of the Mercedes-Benz approved mo- bile phones, cradles and adaptors avail- able for use in your vehicle utilize Bluetooth® technology to communicate with each other and the vehicle. Depend- ing on your phone brand and model, the number of in-vehicle or on-display COMAND telephone features supported via Bluetooth® communication, and thus available for your use, may vary. The descriptions and illustrations in this section are based on the use of fully com- patible Mercedes-Benz approved mobile phones and cradles that do not utilize Blue- tooth® technology to communicate with each other. If your vehicle is equipped with integrated Bluetooth® functionality than a Bluetooth® capable mobile phone, head- set, Laptop, PDA, etc. is required to utilize those features.

For additional information about Mercedes-Benz approved Bluetooth® mo- bile phones and related accessories please contact the Mercedes-Benz Customer As- sistance Center at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes or your nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
