Control systems COMAND audio CD/audio DVD/MP3 ! Do not affix stickers or labels to the discs. These could peel away and damage COMAND. COMAND is designed to hold discs which comply with the IEC 60908 standard. You can therefore only use discs with a maximum thickness of 1.3 mm. If you insert thicker discs, e.g. those that contain data on both sides (DVD on one side and audio data on the other), they cannot be ejected and can damage COMAND. Do not use discs with an 8-cm diameter, even if they have an adapter. Only use round discs with a 12-cm diameter. Notes about handling CDs/DVDs Only hold discs by the edge. Handle discs carefully to prevent playback problems. Avoid getting scratches, fingerprints and dust on discs. Clean discs from time to time with a commercially-available cleaning cloth. Do not wipe them with a circular motion, but only in straight lines from the center outwards. Only use a pen designed for such a purpose to label discs. Place discs back in their boxes after use. Protect discs from heat and direct sunlight. Inserting CDs and DVDs Warning! G Only insert a CD or DVD when the vehicle is stationary. There is a risk of accident by being distracted from road and traffic conditions if you load a CD/DVD 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. i If the CD/DVD has a printed side, this must face upwards when the CD/DVD is inserted. If neither side is printed, the side to be played should face downwards. 115
