Notes on copyright
MP3 or WMA tracks that you create or play
back are generally subject to copyright
protection in accordance with the applicable
international and national regulations.
In many countries, reproductions, even for
private use, are not permitted withou tthe
prior consentoft he copyright holder.
Make sure that you know about the applicable
copyright regulations and that you comply
with these.
If you own these rights yourself, e.g. for your
own compositions and recordings, or if the
copyright holder has granted you permission,
these restrictions do not apply.
Notes on CDs/DVDs
Discs with copy protection are not
compatible with the audio CD standard and
therefore may not be able to be played by
COMAND.
There may be playback problems when
playing copied discs. There is a wide range of
data carriers, disc-writing software and
writers available. This variety means that
there is no guarantee that the system will be
able to play discs that you have copied
yourself.
There may be playback problems if you play
CDs that you have copied yourself with a
storage capacity of more than 700 MB. CDs
of this type do not conform to the currently
applicable standards.
i On many DVD audio discs, the last track
does not contain any music and COMAND
then switches to the next disc. This is
normal system behavior and does not mean
that there is a malfunction.
! Do not affix stickers or labels to the discs.
They could peel off and damage the drive.
The drive is designed to hold discs which
comply with the EN 60908 standard.
Therefore, you can 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 the
drive.
Do not use discs with a diameter of 8 cm,
even with an adapter. Only use round discs
with a diameter of 12 cm.
i COMAND is able to play back audio CDs
in multichannel audio format. MUSIC REGISTER
General notes You can store music files in MP3 or WMA
format in the MUSIC REGISTER. The memory
has a capacity of approximately
7GB.
