Automatic volume adjustment
General information
With the Automatic Volume Adjustment
function, the volumes of different audio sour-
ces are adjusted for each other, to compen-
sate for relative differences in volume.
For example: changing from a relatively
quiet to a relatively loud radio station. The
volume for both stations sounds the same.
Manual readjustment of the volume is not
required.
The Automatic Volume Adjustment
func-
tion is deactivated ªwhen the vehicle leaves
the factory. Using this function, the dynamic
range of the music is slightly reduced. To
make the most of the audiophile sound qual- ity, it is recommended to leave it off.

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.
