Therefore, you can only use discs with a
maximum 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.
You may encounter playback problems when
playing copied discs. There are a large variety
of discs, DVD authoring software, writing
software and writers available. This variety
means that there is no guarantee that the
system will be able to play discs that you have
copied yourself.
DVD playback requirements
There are video DVDs available on the market
that do not conform to the current standards.
Such DVDs may have picture, sound or other
playback problems.
COMAND Online is capable of playing back
video DVDs produced according to the fol-
lowing standards:
R
Region code 2 (for Europe) 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.

If you insert a video DVD with a different
region code, you will see a message to this
effect.

COMAND Online is set to region code 2
at the factory. This setting can be changed
at a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. This
will allow you to play video DVDs with a dif-
ferent region code, provided that they are
produced in accordance with the PAL or
NTSC standard. The region code can be
changed a maximum of five times.
Function restrictions
Depending on the DVD, it is possible that cer-
tain functions or actions will be temporarily
