Illustrated on model 218.3
Location
The Audio/COMMAND display is fitted to the top center of the instrument panel.
Task
The Audio/COMMAND display serves the uniform presentation of user-relevant operating and information windows as well as the presentation of video picture information.
Moreover, the Audio/COMMAND display makes possible the presentation of two different views at the same time. This function enables the driver and front passenger to access video picture information or vehicle system information at the same time and independently from one another (dual viewing mode).
The operation of the Audio/COMMAND display for the front passenger occurs using a remote control (the signals are read in by the COMMAND controller unit (A40/3)). A uniform picture can be output via a mono output mode. Due to the design of the Audio/COMMAND display, the visual range of the driver (1) and visual range of the front passenger (2) are defined in a fixed manner and an insufficient picture quality is possible in the overlap area (3) of the visual ranges.
In order to prevent overheating of the Audio/COMMAND display, it is cooled by an internal blower motor. Cooling is controlled internally in the Audio/COMMAND display. The temperature of the Audio/COMMAND display is kept below 85 °C during operation and below 95 °C with the vehicle at a standstill.
The Audio/COMMAND display also has the following tasks:
