NOTE:
If a COMAND head unit (A40/3) with PIN theft protection is installed in the vehicle, the PIN code must be documented in the VeDoc system.
Observe the [initial start-up] instructions guided by DAS/XENTRY Diagnostic. During the SCN coding process, DAS updates the head unit relevant
data in VeDoc. All this documentation is done automatically by DAS/XENTRY as part of the SCN coding process.2010 Mercedes Benz Truck G 550 (463.236) V8-5.5L (273.963)

You must complete the SCN coding process so that XENTRY Server loads and documents and correct theft-protection PIN onto the head unit, other
wise, the head unit will not function after 50 ignition cycles have been reached.
NOTE on Hard-drive operation at high altitude (3000 Meters or higher):
To protect the head unit's hard-drive (HDD) from being permanently inoperative, we specified the HDD to shut itself down as the vehicle (and
therefore the head unit) reaches an altitude of about 3000 Meters (9842 ft.) or higher with temperature around the head unit and its surroundings
reach 55°C or higher. This condition is normal.
At that altitude and temperature, the Hard-drive music register, Navigation System, Voice Recognition, Gracenote Database CD/DVD drive will not
be available to the user. Once the vehicle is brought down to altitude lower than 3000 Meters, the above functions should return to normal operation.
Do NOT replace head units or the claim will be denied.
