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.

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.

a stereo system the sound from one track might bleed to
the other track, despite setting the balance to the full
left or full right speakers.

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.
