General notes
The satellite radio mode requires satellite
radio equipment and registration with a sat-
ellite radio provider.
Note that the categories and channels shown

vider.
Satellite radio mode may be temporarily
unavailable or interrupted for a variety of rea-
sons. These include environmental or topo-
graphical conditions as well as other factors
beyond the control of Mercedes-Benz USA,

ble in certain areas.
These include:
Rtunnels

to authorize it.
When you authorize a new Bluetooth
®audio
device, it is connected automatically. Con-
nection involves first searching for a Blue-
tooth
®audio device and then authorizing it.
You can authorize up to fifteen Bluetooth
®
devices.
iIf you authorize a mobile phone that sup-
ports Bluetooth®audio, the A2DP and
AVRCP Bluetooth®audio profiles are con-
nected automatically.
