It is possible to buy video DVDs which do
not conform to the current standard.
Such DVDs may have image, sound or oth-
er playback problems.
COMAND can play back video DVDs which
fulfil the following conditions as standard:
앫 Region code 2 or region code 0 (no re-
gion code)
앫 PAL or NTSC TV standard
You will generally find the relevant details
either on the DVD itself or on the DVD
case.
COMAND is set to region code 2 at the fac-
tory. This setting can be changed by a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. This will al-
low you to play video DVDs with a different
region code, provided that they are pro-
duced in accordance with the PAL or NTSC
TV standard.
Depending on the DVD, it is possible that
certain functions or actions will not func-
tion temporarily or not at all.
As soon as you try to activate these func-
tions or actions, you will see the 7 symbol
in the display.
