2017 COMAND manual

Did anyone receive a printed manual for the COMAND system when they picked up their 2017 SL? I didn't and, when I contacted Embrace, I was told that it was only available in a digital format. The manual in .pdf format is over 200 pages long. To download and print it on 8-1/2" x 11" paper is ridiculous.

Comand

I just use the one loaded in the Comand system, or view it on line to get what I need.

The other day I was freaked by a red triangle alarming. I did not know what it is.

I pulled over and fiund the user manual in the glove compartment. It came handy as I found that the alarm because a driver swiched lane suddenly and I was close to him at the speed I am driving.

So yes I have a user manual if that what you mean by a command manual.

No, the User Manual is not the COMAND Manual. The latter gives detailed instructions about how to use the media system, the navigation system and the phone.
