MP3 CD operationSafety instructionsWarning
G
In order to avoid distraction which could
lead to an accident, the driver should insert
CDs with the vehicle at a standstill and
operate the audio system only if permitted
by road, weather and traffic conditions.Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your car covers a
distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m)
every second.
Warning
G
The CD drive is a Class 1 laser product.

There is a danger of invisible laser radiation
when you open or damage the cover.Do not remove the cover. The CD drive does
not contain any parts which can be serviced
by the user. For safety reasons, have any ne
-
cessary service work performed by qualified
personnel.Tips on data storage media!Do not attach labels of any type to the
CD. They may become detached and
damage the drive.
!Your CD drive has been designed to
play CDs which correspond to the IEC
60908 standard. Therefore only CDs
not exceeding a thickness of 1.3 mm
can be used.If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g.
ones that have data on both sides (one
side with DVD data, the other side with
audio data), they will become stuck and
damage the drive.Do not play single CDs (80mm) with an
adapter. An adapter could become
stuck and damage the drive. Only use
12 cm diameter CDs.

72 AudioMP3 CD operationFile structureWhen creating a MP3 CD, you can organize
MP3 tracks into folders. A folder can also
contain additional folders.

A CD may have a maximum of 255 folders
in total.A maximum of 255 tracks are permissible
per folder.Mathematically a maximum of 65025
tracks would result. However, this amount
is usually not reached since MP3 requires
approx. 1 MB storage per minute recorded.

Track names and folder namesWhen creating an MP3 CD, you can assign
names to the MP3 tracks and folders.
COMAND uses these names in MP3 mode
for the corresponding display.Please note the following when assigning
folder and track names:
Track and folder names must contain
at least 1 character.

Track names may contain up to either
thirty or fifty characters depending on
the CD format. If a name exceeds this
character limit, COMAND will not be
able to display it in full.

Track names must have the extension
“mp3”.

A period must appear between the
track name and the file extension.Example of a correct track name:
Track1.mp3
Empty folders or folders containing data
other than MP3 or audio CD tracks will not
be displayed by COMAND.

116 NavigationImportant notesIf your vehicle has been transported (e.g.
by a car, train or ferry) the system may
make navigation announcements which do
not correspond to the vehicle’s position. The system needs to redetermine its
position.Determining the location after the
vehicle has been transportedThe system will need some time to
determine its location after the car has
been transported. The time required for
the system to do so varies from case to
case.

Switch the COMAND on.

Activate the Navigation main menu ( page
118)
.
The navigation DVD needs to be in the
DVD NAVIGATION slot
( page

143 Navigation
Route guidance
Route guidance in these areasWhen you are
entering a partially digitized area
or 
starting route guidance within such an
area,
the navigation system will inform you that
turn by turn guidance cannot be provided
with corresponding navigation displays
and voice announcements.
Map displayWithin these areas the display shows a
split screen with the map on the left-hand
side and a direction arrow on the right side
pointing to the destination instead of the
symbol for the next driving maneuver ( page
144)
.
Route presentationUsually the map highlights the active route
on verified roads with a blue line. After route calculation, the route may
contain unverified road sections. Here, the
exact route guidance is suppressed and
these route sections will appear as blue
dotted lines. This type of line e.g. connects
two verified road sections, which are
displayed as blue lines or connects the end
of a verified road with a stopover or
destination located on an unverified road.
iDisplayed or audible distance to the
beginning of such an area is an
estimation. The actual distance may
differ.Warning
G
If the origin and destination are located very
close to each other, the system may not pro
-
vide the shortest path to the destination
when you are travelling in an unverified area.
In most cases you will be directed to a veri
-
fied road closest to the destination. This
may appear to be a long and unconvenient
route but it is safer. At your own risk, you
may choose to drive on the unverified roads
to the destination.
