That looks like the smaller screen therefore you have AUDIO 20

Running your VIN through an external M-B VIN decoder (datamb.com) shows you do have Comand:

531 COMAND APS NTG5/NTG5.5

Comand and screen size are not mutually exclusive. The larger screen was part of the Multimedia Package which was semi-independent of the Comand option.
