When a Tele Aid call has been initiated,
the audio system or the COMAND sys-
tem audio is muted and the selected
mode (radio, tape or CD) pauses. The
optional cellular phone (if installed)
switches off. If it is necessary for you to
use this phone, then the vehicle must
be at a standstill. Disconnect the coiled
cord and place the call. The COMAND
navigation system (if engaged) will con-
tinue to run. The display in the instru-
ment cluster is available for use and
spoken commands are only available
by pressing the RPT button on the CO-
MAND unit. A pop-up window will ap-
pear in the COMAND display to
indicate that a Tele Aid call is in
progress.
