General
The functionalities for the volume and tone settings run in the COMAND operating, display and controller unit (A40/3) before the audio signals are emitted at the speaker system.

The audio amplifier is located in the COMAND operating, display and controller unit. If the vehicle is equipped with code 810 Sound system, a digital sound processor enables additional stereo sound settings and an extended final amplification of the audio signals to be performed.

The volume and tone settings are displayed on the display of the COMAND operating, display and controller unit.

The volume and tone settings are made via the COMAND operating, display and controller unit and the multifunction steering wheel.
