Default Retracting antenna

On my previous MB sedan, there was a rocker switch independent of the radio to raise/lower the antenna. I recently purchased a '99 500SL with a radio/CD that sound and performs great, but I can't seem to find out how to control the antenna. When listening to CDs, which I ususally do, the antenna is always raised. Can this be controlled or is the antenna raised whenever the sound system is on? Any thoughts?
Thanks...slaf

The stock sound system in my '95 SL put the antenna up whenever it was turned on. Didn't matter whether the radio, tape, or CD was playing.
