Phone book entries
The phone book entries on your SIM card and your mobile
phone directory are automatically stored on the MMI
system.
Loading the phone book entries
The phone book entries will be loaded into the MMI automatically
when you switch on the ignition (if the mobile phone supports this
function). It may take several minutes to load the entries, depending
on how many entries are stored on the mobile phone.
The last four phone books loaded into the MMI memory remain
stored there. When you link a fifth mobile phone to the car tele-
phone kit, the phone book from the mobile phone which has not
been used for the longest time is deleted from the MMI. Up to 1255
phone book entries per phone book can be stored in the memory.
Reconnecting a mobile phone
If the SIM card is the same as before, the phone book will appear on
the MMI after a short time.
The MMI automatically checks the phone book entries in the back-
ground and will update the memory if the entries have changed.
Displaying the phone book entries
The phone book entries are displayed in alphabetical order together
with a category symbol
fig. 21, e.g. SIM card, private, business,
mobile phone or telephone symbol.
Note
•Which phone book entries are displayed on the MMI will depend
on the mobile phone you are using.
•If the SIM card is in the handset
page 31, only the SIM card
entries will be displayed.
•In certain cases, phone book entries from a mobile phone may
not be transmitted in alphabetical order. If there are too many
phone book entries, entries with certain initial letters may not be
displayed on the MMI system.

used. If you have this type of SIM card, please contact your mobile

bending. For this reason, handle the SIM card with care.

your provider. Otherwise, you may experience connection problems
and callers may not be able to reach you.
•You can also enter the PIN and PUK using the MMI
