SPLITVIEW
Method of operation
SPLITVIEW allows the front-passenger to
simultaneously use different COMAND func-
tions than the driver. Different content is seen
depending on your perspective when viewing
the display.
The navigation function, for example, can be
used from the driver's side while a video is
watched from the front-passenger side.
SPLITVIEW is operated with the COMAND
remote control from the front-passenger
side.
To do so, use the special radio headphones.
Using the headphones on the correct sides
ensures an optimal sound.
You can connect your own headphones to a
special headphones jack. You can use the
COMAND remote control to operate them.
Points to remember
RYou can only adjust the volume for the
headphones supplied, directly on the head-
phones.
ROnly entertainment functions, i.e. audio,
TV, video and Internet, for example, may be
used with SPLITVIEW.
RVideos cannot be shown on the driver's
side while the vehicle is in motion.
RIf media from different sources are used,
these can be used separately from the driv-
er's and front-passenger sides. Example: if
a medium from the DVD changer is being
played on the driver's side, It is not possible
for the front passenger to play any other
medium that is inserted in the DVD changer
from the front-passenger side. However,
other media can be used on the front-
passenger side at the same time, including the radio, memory card, MEDIA REGISTER,
Media Interface, USB or AUX.
RIf you use the same medium on both the
driver's and front passenger sides, settings

can be made from both sides. In this case,
the last setting made takes precedence.
RRequirement for Internet use (USA):
mbrace must be activated for Internet
access in COMAND on the driver's side
(
Ypage 176).
RRequirement for Internet use (Canada): a
mobile phone must be connected via Blue-
tooth
®or USB to COMAND on the driver's
side (
Ypage 176).
RThe Internet can be separately used by both
the driver and front passenger at the same
time.
RThe multifunction steering wheel can be
used to control the functions which relate
to the driver's side, but not for the front-
passenger side.
RThe driver can lock or unlock the other
screens (override feature) (
Ypage 76).
