Using the telephone via the Bluetooth® interface
Bluetooth® technology is the standard for
short-range wireless data transmission of up
to approximately 10 metres. Bluetooth® can
be used to exchange vCards or make calls
using a headset or handset, for example.
If your vehicle is equipped with convenience
telephony* and you would like to make calls
using the Bluetooth® interface, be sure that
your mobile phone is neither in the mobile
phone bracket* nor connected to it*. This
may result in a malfunction, depending on the
type of mobile phone.

Mobile phone requirements
For telephony via COMAND's Bluetooth
interface, you require a Bluetooth®-capable
mobile phone.
i
Not all mobile phones available on the
market are equally suitable. You can obtain
more detailed information about suitable
mobile phones and about connecting Bluetooth®-capable mobile phones to
COMAND from your Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre or on the Internet
(www.mercedes-benz.com).
To avoid malfunctions, the mobile phone's
rechargeable battery must always be sufficiently charged.
In preparation for telephoning via the Bluetooth® interface you should check the following items on your mobile phone (see the
mobile phone operating instructions):
R
Hands-Free Profile
The mobile phone must support Hands-
Free Profile 1.0 or above.
i
Certain displays (e.g. the field strength
display or the mobile phone network provider) appear depending on the supported
version of the Hands-Free Profile.
R
Bluetooth® visibility
On certain mobile phones, the device itself
must be made "visible" for other devices,
as well as activating the Bluetooth® function.
R
Bluetooth® device name
Every Bluetooth® device has a Bluetooth
device name. This device name is freely
definable, but can be identical for all devices from the same manufacturer. It is a
good idea to choose a personalised name
by which you can identify your mobile
phone clearly.

Bluetooth® is activated on COMAND as

Registering (authorising) the mobile
phone
Before you use your mobile phone with
COMAND for the first time, you must register

(authorise) it.
i
You can register more than one mobile
phone. A connection is always established to
the most recently connected mobile phone
within range.
If no connection can be made to the most
recently connected mobile phone, the system
searches for the mobile phone which was
connected before that one.
If you authorise a new mobile phone, it will be
automatically connected17.

Select Data/connectionsQBlue‐

If the Bluetooth® telephone list is already
full, you will be asked to de-authorise a
Bluetooth® device (Y page 118). If
COMAND does not find your mobile phone,
external authorisation (Y page 117) is necessary.
X
To authorise: select not yet authorised

OptionsQAuthorise.
The passcode entry menu (detection, code)
appears.
COMAND looks for Bluetooth® devices
within range and adds them to the Bluetooth® phone list.
The duration of the search depends on the
number of Bluetooth® devices within range
and on the mobile phone characteristics
(Hands-Free-Profile version, any "visibility"
requirements).

The passcode is any one to sixteen-digit number combination which you can determine
yourself. You must enter the same number
combination in COMAND and in the Bluetooth® device to be authorised; see the Bluetooth® device operating instructions.
It is a good idea to enter a passcode with at
least four digits to ensure a secure Bluetooth® connection.

Enter the same passcode on the mobile
phone that you entered in COMAND.

After entering the passcode, you may also
need to enter a confirmation in your mobile

settings on your mobile phone. In this case,
you can test if your mobile phone can find

Using the phone book and address
book
The COMAND phone book is an extract of
COMAND
those entries from the address book which
contain at least one telephone number.
In addition, the first entry is "MB Contact",
which can be used to place a call to the
Mercedes-Benz Hotline.
The address book organises and stores
entries which are entered from different sources (mobile phone, SD memory card, Bluetooth® import, COMAND phone book, navigation). You can use these entries to make
telephone calls, for navigation and for writing
(text messages).
Importing contacts automatically
If basic telephony is activated via the Bluetooth® interface or convenience telephony*
using the mobile phone bracket*, contacts
(phone book entries) are automatically imported from the respective mobile phone to the
COMAND phone book.
Depending on the mobile phone, this process
may take some time. Depending on the
mobile phone used, only the phone book
entries in the mobile phone or these entries
and the phone book entries in the SIM card
are imported.
Automatically imported contacts (phone
book entries) in COMAND can be identified
by the d/0 symbol. These entries are
only available in COMAND when telephony via
the Bluetooth® interface (basic telephony) or
using the mobile phone bracket* (convenience telephony*) is activated.
Importing contacts manually
i
Manually imported contacts are always
available. Automatically imported contacts
are available only when basic telephony via
the Bluetooth® interface or convenience
telephony* using the mobile phone
bracket* is activated.
You can import existing data manually:
