ports two Bluetooth
®profiles at the same
time, the Internet connection is interrup-
ted.
iThe connection to the Bluetooth®audio
device can also be interrupted if:
Rthe connected mobile phone only sup-
ports 2 Bluetooth®profiles at the same
time.
Ryou connect to the Internet using
COMAND (
Ypage 153).
Selecting a track
The function is not supported by all Blue-
tooth®audio devices. Some mobile phones impair function with
regard to the following criteria:
Rthe number of tracks that can be selected
Rthe time period until the next or previous
track is played
XSwitch the multifunction steering wheel to
the media menu (see the vehicle Operator's
Manual).
XTo skip forwards or backwards to a
track: press the 9or: button on
the multifunction steering wheel.
XRapid scroll: press and hold the 9
or : button on the multifunction steer-
ing wheel until the desired track is reached.
If you press and hold the 9or:
buttons, the rapid scrolling speed increa-
ses after a short time.
iIn rapid scroll, track names are not
shown, but instead only Track1, Track2 etc.
The playback times for the tracks played
are not displayed. This is available as an
optional function starting with AVRCP Ver-
sion 1.3. There is also no music search
option available with Bluetooth
®Audio.
Selecting playback options
If the Bluetooth®audio device supports the
corresponding function, the following options
are available:
RNormal Track Sequence: the tracks are
played in the normal order (e.g. track 1, 2, 3
etc.).
Audio data playback is determined by the
order in which the tracks are written to the
data medium. Alphabetical order is the
most common. Once all the tracks in a
folder have 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
medium are played in random order (e.g.
track 3, 8, 5 etc.).

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:
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.
iCOMAND 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.
