been played, the tracks in the next folder are
played.
RRandomTrackList: the current track list is
played in random order (e.g. 3, 8, 5 etc.).
RRandom Medium: all tracks on the data

Important safety notes
GWARNING
The CD/DVD drive is a class 1 laser product.
If you open the housing of the CD/DVD drive,
there is a risk of exposure to invisible laser
radiation. This laser radiation could damage
your retina. There is a risk of injury.
Never open the housing. Always have main-
tenance and repair work carried out at a quali- fied specialist workshop.
GWARNING
Handling discs while driving may distract you from traffic conditions. You could also lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Handle discs only when the vehicle is station-
ary.
Bear in mind that at a speed of only 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h) your vehicle covers a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14
m) every
se cond.
General notes
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.
!The drive is designed to accept discs which
correspond to the EN 60908 norm. You can
therefore only use discs with a maximum
thickness of 1.3 mm.
If you insert thicker discs, e.g. those that con-
tain data on both sides (DVD on one side and
audio data on the other), they cannot be ejec-
ted and can damage the device.
Use round discs with a diameter of 12 cm. Do not use discs with a diameter of 8 cm, even if
used in conjunction with an adapter.
The variety of data media, burners and burn
software means 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.
The multimedia system can play video DVDs
produced according to the following standards:
RRegion code 1 or region code 0 (no region
code)
RPAL or NTSC standard
You will generally find the relevant details either
on the DVD itself or on the DVD case.
iIf you insert a video DVD with a different
region code, a message to this effect appears.
iThe multimedia system is set to region code
1 at the factory. This setting can be changed
at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. It is
also possible to play video DVDs with a dif-
ferent region code, provided that they are
produced in accordance with the PAL or NTSC
TV standard. The region code can be changed
up to five times.
