A background search of the USB device is
performed and any playlists found are pro-
vided in a separate category in addition to
the folders. Initialisation of larger USB
mass storage devices containing a high
number of files can take up to several
minutes.
i
Files protected with DRM (Digital Rights
Management) are not supported by the

Connecting external devices
Device-specific adapter cables are needed to
connect external equipment to the Media
Interface. These cables are included in the
Media Interface scope of delivery.
You will find the connection sockets in the
glove compartment.
Never connect more than one device at a
time. You will otherwise not be able to play
back from the external device. Please consult
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for further
information.
i
Never leave external devices in the vehi-
cle as extreme temperatures (e.g. if sub-
jected to direct sunlight or at extremely low
outside temperatures) may prevent them
from functioning correctly (see separate
operating instructions of the respective
device). Mercedes-Benz does not take
responsibility for any damage to external
devices.
