iIf 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
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 is
described in separate operating guides.
Refer to the vehicle Operator’s Manual
for operation of the telephone using the
multifunction steering wheel.
iIn 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.
