WarningG
In order to avoid distraction which could
lead to an accident, the driver should insert
DVDs with the vehicle at a standstill and
operate the audio system only if permitted
by road, weather and traffic conditions.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your car covers a
distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m)
every second.
i
A DVD already loaded must be ejected
before inserting a new DVD. Inserting a
second DVD with another DVD still loa-
ded will cause damage to the DVD dri-
ve which is not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
i
Your CD/DVD drive has been designed
to play CDs/DVDs which correspond
to the IEC 60908 standard.
If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g.
ones that have data on both sides (one
side with DVD data, the other side with
audio data), they cannot be ejected
and will damage the drive.
i
If you do not insert the DVD into the
slot within around 15 seconds, the
COMAND will close the slot.
