Media overview
You can access various types of media from
all operating positions in the vehicle.
The media can be connected to any jack or
inserted into the various drives.
R If media from different sources are used,
they can be used separately from each of
the operating positions. Example: a film
from the DVD drive is played on the rear
right-hand operating position. This means
that another film from the same DVD can- not be played separately on the rear left-
hand operating position. However, it is pos- sible to use the radio, memory card, MUSIC
REGISTER, Media Interface, USB, online
and Internet functions or AUX.
R If you use the same medium on both sides,
you can both carry out the respective set-
tings. The "last one wins" principle applies
here, i.e. the last setting activated is
favored.
R The Internet can be used separately at all
operating positions.
R The Internet can only be used if it is set up
and connected via a telephone
(Y page 173).
