Before you use the telephone
Warning!
Never operate radio transmitters equipped with a
built-in or attached antenna (i.e. without being
connected to an external antenna) from inside the
vehicle while the engine is running. Doing so
could lead to a malfunction of the vehicle’s elec-
tronic systems, possibly resulting in an accident
and personal injury.
Radio transmitters, such as a portable telephone or a
citizens band unit should only be used inside the
vehicle if they are connected to an antenna that is
installed on the outside of the vehicle.
• Please read this section first before attempting to
operate your telephone.
• Always drive with extreme caution when you
operate the telephone hands-free.• Do not stop or park in no-parking areas to use the
telephone.
• Close the windows and reduce all outside noise as
much as possible when you use hands-free opera-
tion.
• If the signal strength is very weak (display in the
symbol field of all main menus) you should not
make telephone calls. Wait until reception im-
proves.
• A brief disconnection from the cellular network
is not a malfunction, as this can occur when the
network switches areas.
• If you are required to enter the unlock code when
you switch the COMAND operating unit on, enter it
to be able to use all of the telephone functions.
Enter the unlock code, see page 100.
• If a telephone menu other than the telephone menu
is displayed on the COMAND screen, the display
will change if an outgoing call is sent out via the
multifunction steering wheel. Notes

Voice output during route guidance
During the trip, along with the visual information –
symbol or map displays – COMAND also provides all of
the necessary spoken route information via voice
output.
Warning!
Voice output is intended to direct you while driving
without diverting your attention from the road and
driving. Please always use this feature instead of
consulting the screen symbols or map for
directions while driving which may cause you to
divert your attention from driving which can
increase your risk of accident.
Spoken recommendations are given:
• when route guidance begins,
• after the route has been calculated,
• before and during a change in the driving direction,
• when the destination or a way point has been
reached.
If an audio source is switched on, e.g. the radio, the
voice output is mixed with that of the audio source. Beginning route guidance
After the route has been calculated, the symbol display
will appear. If you now are at the turn-off point, you
will also hear a voice telling you, e.g. “Please turn
right”.
You can select screen display during the journey:
• Symbol display
• Switch between symbol and map display, page 193
• Route guidance with a mixture of map and symbol
display, page 196
