Smile Rear view camera works without turning on COMMAND?

I have a 2008 GL450. Whenever I reverse I like the rear view camera to display on the COMMAND screen. Is it possible to do this without having to turn on the COMMAND unit? Right now I have to turn on the COMMAND unit for the rear view camera to display on the screen.

In other cars you always get the rear view camera on the display without turning on the other functions such as CDs, NAV and etc, so I am wondering on this car if there is a way to set it so that it behaves the same.

Nope.

It's more annoying when you have started to reverse with the command off. U turn it on because you need it and it takes at least 5 seconds to display the image because of the usual WARNING

YES, it really is annoying how long it takes for the screen to come on.

Usually after my kids, or wife walk around us.
