If it is permitted by law to operate communica-
tions equipment while the vehicle is in motion,
you may only do so if the traffic situation per-
mits. You may otherwise be distracted from the
traffic conditions, cause an accident and injure
yourself and others.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk posed by electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R optimal mobile phone reception quality in the
vehicle
R that mutual interference between the vehicle
electronics and mobile phones is minimised
An exterior aerial has the following advantages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gener-
ated by a wireless device to the exterior
R the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have an
exterior aerial

mobile phones (RF transmitters) (Y page 280).
General notes There are various mobile phone brackets that
may be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases,
these are country-specific.
More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting Blue-
tooth ®
-capable mobile phones to
COMAND Online/Audio 20 can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-
benz.com/connect
The functions and services available when you
use the phone depend on your mobile phone
model and service provider.
Using a mobile phone To connect a mobile phone to the exterior aerial
and charge it, insert it into the mobile phone
bracket. X

(Y page 226).
X Place the mobile phone bracket into the pre-
installed fitting; see the separate installation

X Insert the mobile phone into the mobile phone
bracket; see the separate installation instruc- tions for the mobile phone fitting.
i The mobile phone can also be operated
without being in the bracket. However, the
charging function and aerial function are not
available.
In order to use Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) on your
telephone module, you must first insert the tele-
phone module into the pre-installed fitting. This connects it to the exterior aerial. If you wish to
charge the mobile phone, then you must con-
nect it to a USB port.
Further information on the telephone module
with Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) can be found in the
Digital Owner's Manual.
Operating the mobile phone You can operate the telephone using the
6
and ~ buttons on the multifunction steering
wheel. You can operate other mobile phone
functions via the on-board computer
(Y page 181).
When you remove the key from the ignition lock, the mobile phone is disconnected from the vehi-cle. You can then no longer make calls using the
hands-free system.
If a call is active and you remove the key from
the ignition lock, the conversation is transferred over to the mobile phone. It is then possible to
continue the conversation on the mobile phone. Features
