Cassette mode Note: Vehicles equipped with the COMAND system do not come with a factory installed cassette mechanism. A standard 1/8" stereo phono plug for auxiliary audio input (located in glove box) is provided for connection of a portable battery operated cassette player or any other portable device which uses a headphone output. Please refer to the COMAND operating manual for information concerning the activation of the audio input. Playing cassettes Press the "TAPE" button. When the eject (EJ) key is pressed, the display folds down and the cassette slot becomes visible. Push the cassette into the slot until it engages. The cassette will be pulled in automatically. Note: Do not press directly on the radio display face. Return the display panel to its normal position by folding it back up and pressing gently on the display frame to lock in place. Important! If the display is in the down position for more than 20 seconds, 2 successive beeps will be heard. This will continue at 5 second intervals until the display is returned to its normal position. The radio will switch to cassette mode. Track 1 will be played and "SIDE 1" displayed. Track 1 is the side of the cassette which is facing upwards. The cassette deck will automatically detect the type of tape and switch the equalization automatically. A cassette symbol in the display indicates that a tape is in the mechanism. This symbol appears in all modes but not in cassette mode. The cassette will not be ejected when the radio is switched off or another mode is selected. If a cassette is in the mechanism, cassette mode can be selected by using the "TAPE" button. If no cassette has been inserted, the display will show "NO TAPE".
