General notes
!Do not use the space in front of the dis-
play for storage. Objects placed here could damage the display or impair its function.
Avoid any direct contact with the display
surface. Pressure on the display surface
may result in impairments to the display,
which could be irreversible.
Wearing polarized sunglasses may impair
your ability to read the display.
The display has an automatic temperature-
controlled switch-off feature. The brightness
is automatically reduced if the temperature is
too high. The display may then temporarily
switch off completely.
Overview
The example shows the display in SD memory
card mode in COMAND.
In the status bar at the top you will see the
time and other displays, depending on the
settings.

Below it you will see the main display field.
The climate control status display is briefly
displayed when you operate the climate con-
trol system.
Cleaning instructions
!Do not touch the display. The display has
a very sensitive high-gloss surface; there is
a risk of scratching. If you have to clean the
screen, however, use a mild cleaning agent
and a soft, lint-free cloth.
The display must be switched off and have
cooled down before you start cleaning. Clean
the display screen, when necessary, with a
commercially available microfiber cloth and
cleaning agent for TFT/LCD displays. Do not
apply pressure to the display surface when
cleaning it, as this could cause irreversible
damage to the display. Then, dry the surface
with a dry microfiber cloth.
Avoid using alcoholic thinners, gasoline or
abrasive cleaning agents. These could dam-
age the display surface.
