Does your COMAND screen come on for anything else? If not, turn the screen power on.
Your COMAND system is far more complex than a "radio." If you don't have a COMAND manual, download the one at http://home.earthlink.net/~phdwebsite/comand_manual.htm and spend some time with it.
You didn't specify the model year of your car. It would be helpful if you did, because there can be significant differences.
If you have a '00, the '01 and '00 COMANDS were similar enough to be able to use the '01 manual. However, the '00 used two different navigation systems, with navigation CD sets that were not interchangeable. See http://www.benzworld.org/forums/audi...4-nav-cds.html if you have a '00. '01 through '03 used "D"nav.
