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 recogni-
tion problems.
! COMAND is designed to play discs that
comply with the EN 60908 standard. There-
fore, you can only use discs with a maxi-
mum 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 can-
not be ejected and can damage the device.
Only use round discs with a diameter of
12 cm. Do not use discs with a diameter of
8 cm, even 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.
COMAND is capable of playing back video
DVDs produced according to the following
standards:
R Region code 1 or region code 0 (no region
code)
R PAL or NTSC standard
You will generally find the relevant details
either on the DVD itself or on the DVD case.
i If you insert a video DVD with a different
region code, a message to this effect
appears.
i COMAND 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 different
region code, provided that they are pro- duced in accordance with the PAL or NTSC
TV standard. The region code can be
changed up to five times.
Control options There are four control menus available in
video DVD mode.
Most DVDs have their own control menu.
The DVD's control menu is operated directly
using the controller or DVD functions.

(Y page 208).
The rain radar image is then displayed if
weather data is available.
i You can call up the legend for the precip-
itation radar (Y page 211).
The transparency of the precipitation radar
map display level can be adjusted in five
stages.
To display storm characteristics:
X Activate the Storm

play level (Y page 208).
If weather data is available, the weather
map will then display the storm character-
istics.
You can call up the legend for storms
(Y page 211).
The following information on a storm cell is
displayed (if available):
R characteristics of the storm cell
R date and time of observation (time
stamp)
R directional movement speed and path
Propagation speed: the speed at which the
storm cell is advancing. To display weather fronts:
X
Activate the Atmospheric Pressure Atmospheric Pressure dis-
play level (Y page 208).
If weather data is available, the weather
map will then display the weather fronts.
The example shows the position of high and
low-pressure areas (H, L), weather fronts
and isobars. Isobars are lines that show
where the air pressure is the same.
Legend: weather fronts Weather
front Explanation
Cold front
(blue line
with blue tri-
angles) If a cold front moves in, the
weather remains changea-
ble and there are often rain
showers and thunder-
storms. The air tempera-
ture decreases.
Warm front
(red line with
red semi-cir-
cles) A warm front may cause
more prolonged steady
rain, more cloud cover and
a slow rise in temperature. Weather forecasts

front Explanation
Stationary
front
(red and blue
line with red
semi-circles
and blue tri-
angles) The weather front moves
minimally. The weather
remains changeable in this
area.
Occlusion
(purple line
with purple
semi-circles
and trian-
gles) When the faster cold front
catches up and joins the
warm front ahead of it, an
occluded front is formed.
The weather remains
changeable and rainy
within an occlusion.
To display the track of a storm:
X
Activate the Tropical Storm Tracking Tropical Storm Tracking
display level (Y page 208).
If weather data is available, the weather
map will then display the track of the storm.
Example: in the middle of the map you can
see the current position of the tropical low-
pressure area (cyclone). To the right of this
a solid line shows the previous path with
positions and times. The forecast for the
direction of propagation is shown by a dot-
ted line with positions and times. You can find out more information about
cyclones in the Storm Guide (Y
page 212).
