Telephony via the Bluetooth ®
interface
Conditions
On the mobile phone
For telephony via COMAND's Bluetooth
®
interface, a Bluetooth ® -capable mobile
phone is required.
i Not all mobile phones available on the
market are equally suitable. For more
information on suitable mobile phones and
on connecting Bluetooth
® -capable mobile
phones to COMAND, visit
http://www.mbusa-mobile.com or call
the Mercedes-Benz Customer Assistance
Center at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes
(1-800-367-6372) (US) or Customer
Relations at 1-800-387-0100 (Canada).
The battery of the mobile phone should
always be kept sufficiently charged in order
to prevent malfunctions.
In preparation for telephoning via the
Bluetooth
® interface, you should check the
following items on your mobile phone (see the
mobile phone operating instructions):
X Hands-free profile
The mobile phone must support Hands-free
Profile 1.0 or above.
i Some displays (e.g. the signal strength)
depend on the supported version of the
Hands-free Profile.
X Bluetooth ® visibility
On certain mobile phones, the device itself
must be made "visible" for other devices,
as well as activating the Bluetooth
®
function (see the mobile phone operating
instructions).
X Bluetooth ® device name
Every Bluetooth ® device has its own
Bluetooth ® device name. This name can be
freely chosen, but the default name may be
identical for all devices from a given
manufacturer. It is therefore
recommended that you change this name
so that you can easily recognize your
mobile phone (see the mobile phone
operating instructions).
X Switch on the mobile phone and enter the
PIN when prompted to do so (see the
mobile phone operating instructions).
X Activate Bluetooth ® functions and, where
necessary, Bluetooth ® visibility on the
