Audio AUX mode
Notes on audio AUX mode
The varying volumes of external audio sour-
ces can mean that system messages (e.g.
traffic and navigation announcements) are
played at a noticeably increased volume. If
necessary, deactivate the system messages
or adjust their volume manually.
You can connect an external audio source
(AUX) to COMAND Online. You will find the
socket in the centre console stowage com-
partment.
If COMAND Online is equipped with a Media
Interface, external audio sources are connec-
ted using the cable set provided. The cable
set then replaces the audio AUX socket. The
connections for the Media Interface are loca-
ted in the stowage compartment in the centre
console.
