Important notes
i
If you have a Mercedes-Benz specified
integrated mobile telephone (TDMA/
CDMA or GSM) and the telephone is
inserted in the cradle, the telephone
functions can be used as follows:
at the COMAND
at the multifunction steering wheel
with the Voice control system*
This instruction manual describes the
operation at the COMAND. Unless
otherwise indicated, the descriptions
and illustrations refer to the COMAND.
Operation at the mobile phone and
operation with the Voice control
system* are described in separate
operating guides. Refer to the vehicle
Operator’s Manual for operation of the
telephone using the multifunction
steering wheel.
Which soft key functions are available
depends on the mobile phone variant.
i
In certain menus, the COMAND can
display date and time of the calls.
The COMAND can display phone
number and name of the other party
(e.g. if the COMAND detects an
incoming call, but also in other menus).
For the number to be displayed, the
number information must be
transmitted with the incoming call. The
same goes for the name display which
additionally requires that the caller’s
number and name are saved in the
phone book.
i
No ring or DTMF tones will be heard
when a phone set to silent mode is in-
serted into the cradle.
For ringtone settings, refer to the sepa-
rate operating instructions for the
