Safety notes
GWarning!
COMAND and the CD/DVD drive in the rear
are classified as Class 1 laser products. You
must not open the casing. There is a risk of
exposure to invisible laser radiation if you
open the casing, or if the casing is faulty or
damaged.
COMAND and the CD/DVD drive in the rear
do not contain any parts that you are able to
maintain yourself. For safety reasons, all
maintenance work must be carried out by
qualified technicians.
GWarning!
Only carry out the following when the vehicle
is stationary:
R Inserting a disc/device
R Ejecting a disc/device
There is a risk of accident by being distracted
from road and traffic conditions if you load a
disc/device while the vehicle is in motion.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
Notes about MP3 mode
Permissible media for MP3/WMA files
R CD-R and CD-RW
R DVD-R and DVD-RW
R DVD+R and DVD+RW
R SD cards
R USB flash drives
R iPod ®
R MP3 players
Permissible file systems
R ISO9660/Joliet for CDs
R UDF for DVDs
R FAT16 or FAT32 for storage media
Multisession CDs
For multisession CDs, the first session type
of the CD determines how COMAND will
process the CD.
For example, if the first session type is
according to the audio CD standard and the
second session type is according to the data
CD standard containing MP3/WMA tracks,
COMAND will treat the CD as a conventional
audio CD. This means that it is only possible
to access the audio CD tracks. Access to the
MP3/WMA tracks is not possible.
Similarly, if the first session type is according
to the data CD standard containing MP3/
WMA tracks and the second session type is
according to the audio CD standard,
COMAND will treat the CD as a data CD. This
means that it is only possible to access the
MP3/WMA tracks. Access to the audio CD
tracks is not possible.

Notes on operating a device via the AUX
socket
GWarning!
Due to the different volumes of the external
audio sources, system messages of the
vehicle may be much louder. You may need to
disable these system messages or adjust the
volume of these messages manually.
iThe volume of external audio sources is
extremely variable. It is possible that a
device connected as an external audio
source will sound quieter or louder in the
vehicle or that the usual maximum volume
cannot be achieved. On certain devices the
volume can be set separately. In this case,
start at a moderate volume and increase it
slowly. In this way, you can determine
whether the system is capable of playback
without distortion, even at high volume.
Switching to media interface
operation
iStarting individual function may take
several minutes, depending on the external
device and the content of the medium, for
example video podcasts.
Do not use software other than the genuine
software for uploading your iPod® or MP3
player. Otherwise some or all functions
may not be available.

i Upon the command “Next/Previous CD/
DVD”, the DVD changer switches from one
CD/DVD to the next. It will skip empty
slots. When you select an empty slot using
the commands “CD/DVD 1” through “CD/
DVD 6”, the current slot remains selected.
i The following commands “DVD audio”,
“DVD video”, “Next/Previous CD/DVD”
and “CD/DVD 1” to “CD/DVD 6”, cause
the DVD changer to switch from one slot to
another, regardless of the type of medium
found in the selected slot. In your
command, you can therefore replace the
term “CD/DVD” with “Medium”.
