tination address is the desired destination
when starting navigation from the address
book. Voice tags

address book data are hidden. They can
therefore not be used to make calls, send
text messages or to navigate.

address book stored on COMAND.
R During incoming calls, the caller's name is
not displayed if there is an address book
entry for the number that is calling.

entered manually, the recipient's name is
not displayed, even if there is an address
book entry for the entered number.
R The call list is hidden.
R Redialing is not possible.
R The received text messages list is hidden.
There is still a notification for incoming text messages. For this to be the case, the con-
nected mobile phone must support the

that, for example, the passenger could see the phone number or have access to the
message. Connecting a mobile phone (Y
