WARNING
If you operate mobile communication
equipment while driving, you will be
distracted from traffic conditions. You could
also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk
of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicle

Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and the
health of others.
There is scientific discussion surrounding the
possible health risks posed by
electromagnetic fields. You can reduce this
risk by using an exterior antenna. Therefore, only use mobile communication
equipment if it is connected to the exterior
antenna of the vehicle. Introduction

Introduction
Always pay attention to traffic conditions.
Before starting the journey, familiarize
yourself with the address book functions.
Only use COMAND when the road and traffic
conditions permit. You could otherwise become involved in an accident in which you
or others could be injured.
The address book organizes and stores
entries that are entered from different
sources (mobile phone, memory card, USB
device, COMAND phone book, navigation
system).
You can use these entries to make telephone
calls and for navigation.
i Number of contacts in the address
book: the address book can store a total of
5000 contacts.
Of these:
R 2000 entries are reserved for
permanently saved contacts and
R 3000 entries are reserved for contacts
that you can load from the mobile phone.
i Display of mobile phone contacts:
contacts downloaded from the mobile
phone will no longer be displayed in the
address book if you disconnect the mobile
phone from COMAND. However, the
contact data of the last two mobile phones
connected are still stored in an internal
memory. When the relevant mobile phone
is reconnected, the contacts are displayed
immediately. When automatic download is
activated (Y page 153), COMAND
downloads the mobile phone contacts
again and updates the address book.
When the mobile phone is removed, only
the phone book entries from the mobile
phone are removed from the address book.
The remaining entries are retained. For this
reason, delete your personal data using the
reset function before selling your vehicle,
for example (Y page 48). Calling up the address book
